Description


Volcanoes roar, / But banana peels race. / Rockets soar / Like bananas through space. / Is the moon a banana? What keeps it in place?
In this companion to Cats Are a Liquid, a group of kid-experimenters at a science fair explore the slipperiness of banana peels - a perfect introduction to friction! It's funny and STEM-inspired (with back matter on friction and a kitchen science experiment). These playful and mischeivious banana peels will capture the imagination of readers. Misa Saburi's adorable, inclusive kid characters make this irresistible.
