Energy Makes Things Happen

---

Demystify the abstract concepts of physics and thermodynamics for young minds with Energy Makes Things Happen, an exceptional primary science book written by Newbery Honor author Kimberly Brubaker Bradley and playfully illustrated by Paul Meisel. Released as part of the acclaimed Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series (Stage 2), this educational text tackles the fundamental question: What is energy, and where does it come from? Through clear, relatable language and engaging visual narratives, the book explains how energy is present in everyday occurrences—from a soaring kite powered by the wind to a rolling ball, and even the internal biological fuel human bodies get from eating food. Young readers will explore different states and transfers of energy, such as solar power, electrical currents, and kinetic motion, learning that energy can never be destroyed, only changed from one form to another. This volume serves as an outstanding foundational resource for elementary STEM programs, environmental awareness lessons, and a highly recommended addition to juvenile non-fiction and science enrichment library shelves.
