He manages on a still page to capture the effect of items floating in space, weightless and free from gravitational pull. Chin keeps the body of the book light-hearted and still scientific even as toys float right past the reader in the vastness of space.Īs with any book by Chin, his art is exceptional. More information on gravity in a wordier format is provided at the end of the book. Told in very brief sentences, the book will work for even the youngest scientifically-inclined children to enjoy. But not exactly where you’d expect them to. From there, the effect of gravity on the earth is explained and eventually gravity returns and the objects fall back to earth. Then gravity goes away and his toys, bucket, shovel and banana head out into space. The book begins with the book falling out of the sky and right in front of a boy on a beach, playing with his toy astronaut and rocket. He also adds a touch of magic and whimsy. As with his previous books about redwoods and coral reefs, Chin takes a complicated subject and reduces it neatly to a child-appropriate level.
