The DJ shows only the mildest rubbing; the price has not been clipped; mylar-protected. Overall, very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. Oblong 8vo. 40pp. Illustrated with duotone drawings by Ted Enik. Hardback with DJ. Grade 3-5 Four cartoon kids and an omniscient narrator explore nine questions about motion: motions which children can cause and watch, how they can detect motions that they cannot feel, Newton's laws, center of gravity, orbits, and pendula. Along the way, there are simple experiments and brief mention of Newton, Galileo, and Copernicus. It's all very short and simple, in an open, appealing format, and the science does not suffer from the simplification. Why Doesn't the Earth Fall Up? has plenty of both history and humor - the humor largely thanks to Enik's line drawings - and that's not a bad way to introduce kids to physics. First Edition; First Printing indicated. Seller Inventory # 43730
