How to explain the science of “push and pull” to young readers is often not as easy as it sounds. In this emergent reader – one that offers a more complex plot , more complex text but in a simple  volume that has illustrations to support the text , the reader meets Cece, a girl who loves science and asks those how, why, what if questions. Cece and her classmates explore the forces of “push” and “pull,” how they work , what is the difference between push and pull and how to demonstrate  these forces through experimentation. Readers enjoy class doing a science experiment and begin to understand how these forces work- there is even a dog in the story.

With STEAM becoming more and more a part of the school curriculum, it is good to have these early readers to promote science to our youngest reader
