Why Do Elephants Need the Sun? (Wells of Knowledge Science) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

There are trillions of stars in the universe, but we rely on our sun to provide (or contribute to) most of what we need to survive and thrive: heat, light, plants, animals, wind, and water. Complete with fun, cartoon illustrations, this book give kids plenty of information about our sun in an easy-to-read and digest format. By focusing on the needs of an elephant, Wells makes clear just how important the sun is to life on Earth.

Synopsis:

Robert Wells gives kids plenty of information about our sun in an easy-to-read and digest format.
