The Science of Baseball

Norman D. Graubart Β· 2015
70/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

A solid little STEM primer that earns its place in classroom libraries by making physics and engineering feel like part of the game kids already love. The photography does a lot of heavy lifting, and graphic organizers give teachers a ready hook. At 32 pages there is not much room to go deep, so this is a starting point, not a destination.
