Review
A newly illustrated edition of a c1999 book in the Let's Read and Find Out series. Pfeffer is a strong nonfiction author (and is the author of many other books in this seried) and the illustrations by Chernyshova, with her soft palette and cast of children and animals, are delightful. Using sidebars to explain the science, this book could even be used as a read-aloud in addition to using it in an elementary science or music class to explain the science of sounds. This title is a solid addition to your picture book NF collection.
Overall Book Score: very good
