And so the story of the universe begins! Dr. B. takes children by the hand and off they go into the world of atoms and molecules, the very “stuff ” of which they are made! Featuring exotic metals, brilliant colors, engaging rhymes and a charming young man to lead them through it all, “A is for Atom/’A es por ‘Atomo”, introduces beginning readers to the alphabet in a bilingual format. Through the use of rhymes based on scientific concepts, each idea is explained in a concrete way and linked to objects which your child is already familiar with, such as “insects” and “trains”. To the early learner, words like apple and atom are equal in “readability” but the idea of a tiny atom just might be more enchanting!! This bilingual introduction to ABC literacy through chemical concepts promotes a gentle acquisition of foundational science vocabulary in two languages. The journey into the wonder of science begins here!
