* Subaru Science Books & Films Prize for Outstanding Science Series 수상도서
Harper Collins의 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science시리즈는 과학의 기본개념을 알기 쉽게 소개하며 어린 아이들의 과학, 기술, 자연에 관한 다양한 호기심과 궁금증을 해결해 줄 수 있는 우수한 어린이 과학도서입니다.
이 책에서는 지구에서 밤과 낮이 생기는 이유를 선명한 사진 및 그림, 그리고 간단한 실험을 통해 쉽고 재미있게 설명합니다.
우리가 살고 있는 세상은 정지되어 있는 것 같이 보이지만, 사실은 시간당 약 1,600km라는 매우 빠른 속도로 멈추지 않고 계속 돌고 있습니다. 이를 자전이라고 하지요. 24시간에 한바퀴를 돌고 있기 때문에 절반은 해가 비치는 낮이 되고, 나머지 절반은 해가 비치지 않는 어둠 속에 잠긴 밤이 됩니다. 우리 눈에는 해가 동쪽에서 떠서 서쪽으로 지는 것 같이 보이지만, 사실은 해는 제자리에 있고 지구가 자전을 하면서 도는 것입니다. 지구는 24시간에 한바퀴를 도는 반면에 달은 약 4주에 힌번 자전을 합니다. 따라서 달에서는 낮이 약 2주, 그리고 밤이 약 2주간 계속 됩니다...

Book Description
If you lived on the moon, you would have two straight weeks of daylight and then two weeks of night! On earth, we have both day and night in just twenty-four hours, thanks to the quick rotation of our planet.
Now rebranded with a new cover look, this classic picture book uses simple, fun diagrams and a guided experiment to explain what makes day and night. This book also includes a find out more section with additional activities to track nocturnal animals and to compare different times of day around the world.
This picture book is written by children's book veteran and former Chairman of the American Museum–Hayden Planetarium Franklyn M. Branley and features illustrations from Pura Belpré Award Honoree Arthur Dorros. Both text and artwork were expert-vetted for accuracy.
This is a Level 2 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out, which means the book explores more challenging concepts perfect for children in the primary grades and supports the Common Core Learning Standards and Next Generation Science Standards. Let's-Read-and-Find-Out is the winner of the American Association for the Advancement of Science/Subaru Science Books & Films Prize for Outstanding Science Series.
Booklist
‘Accompanied by NASA photographs and Dorros’s colorful, lively drawings, the text explains the Earth’s rotation in clear and simple terms. An experiment using a lamp as the ‘sun’ further clarifies the principles introduced.’
School Library Journal
What Makes Day and Night is an enormous improvement over the 1961 edition: less repetitive, much clearer in presentation and more specific about physical phenomena. However, brevity causes some of the explanations to be oversimplified, and some further explanations may be necessary. The illustrations are better, featuring clear, colorful and sometimes mildly silly scenes that add some playfulness. The simple science experiment remains from the old edition, and Branley has included a new discussion of day and night on the moon, as well as a photo of our planet taken from space. Gail Gibbons' Sun Up, Sun Down (HBJ, 1983) is a broader, shallower treatment. Use the new revision of the 1963 edition of The Moon and What It's Like to replace the old edition or to supplement more general titles. It reports on the Apollo program and its findings. Instances of stridency (``The Moon is a dead world. It has never had living things on it. It is dead, lifeless and colorless'') and oversimplification (``There is no water anywhere on the Moon''probable but not proven) aside, this is a good first introduction to the subject, neither too technical nor diluted to blandness. The illustrations combine a few unimpressive photos (they're poorly exposed, or not well reproduced, or both) with a new set of simple, clear, uncluttered drawings, including a map showing the Apollo landing sites. As with other books in the series, Branley avoids superficiality by severely limiting his topic. |
