Description
Acadia Greene wants answers. What happened to the frogs she used
to see at her favorite local pond? Why do leaves change color in the fall, and
why don’t evergreen needles do the same? What is the water cycle, and what is
transpiration? How do time zones work, and why does the sun set at different
times in different places within a single zone? How do germs infect us? Acadia
doesn’t mean to do science, but she
has questions and her parents refuse to simply give her the answers. “Conduct
an experiment,” they tell her. “Use the scientific method.” So Acadia makes
hypotheses, designs experiments, analyzes data, and draws conclusions. Acadia
does science.
