Earth is surrounded by stars of which the sun is only one. Earth is blue “because it is covered by 370,000,000.000,000,000,000 gallons of water.” It has trillions of trees and millions of cities …. but “only one of YOU…” This imaginative presentation is enjoyable to read and may well encourage closer observation of what is all around. 

Millions of refrigerators, TVs, schools and stoplights can be powered by the energy held in one person’s pinky finger. So why can’t you power your toys? “… because your body needs all the energy it’s got.” This unique look at the human body’s systems and the energy required to run them is presented in accessible language and darkly hued, strong illustrations.
