These photographic books provide an excellent introduction to different materials and their properties. Each book concentrates on a particular material, and uses imaginative language and child-friendly pictures to describes its characteristics. It then goes on to highlight the connection between the material's properties and how that material is used in the world around us. As well as describing a material and explaining how it is produced and used, the text also includes questions and activities to encourage children to think about and handle materials.
