Great children's book

"Why Can't I Jump Very High" is a wonderful read for children. First it gets them interested in science and then it shows them reading and learning is fun. Good job, Mr. Prasad.

A Great Book for Budding Scientists...

This is a very well written book for youngsters (and oldsters) interested in the laws of gravity. I found author Prasad's writing enjoyable and yet easy to understand. My three year old enjoyed the illustrations by artist Simmonet very much! When he is old enough, I'm sure he will enjoy the written content as well! A "must-have" for your child's bookshelf as well as the classroom!

Great Scientific Children's Book

This book is perfect for inquisitive children of all ages. It is also an excellent book that will get children interested in science. It gives insight into the seemingly mysterious force of gravity. The author presents the topic clearly and discusses interesting examples. I would be interested in reading more scientific books on other scientific topics for children from this author and illustrator.
