Publisher's Synopsis
Everything around us is made of elements, substances that can't easily be broken into smaller parts or changed into other substances. However, elements can be combined. That's how we have the air we breathe, the clothes we wear, the tools we use--not to mention our bodies! All these things are a fascinating combination of elements. This beneficial volume supports readers as they learn about elements and how they connect to make molecules, building the matter that surrounds us. The dynamic text and eye-catching design include fun fact boxes, labeled diagrams, and a concluding graphic organizer.
