Young scientists will get both inspiration and giggles from this humorous but true tale of early experiments with flying. The book tells how the first successful venture into human flight came about because of two French brothers, several paper bags, heated air, leaky cloth, hydrogen gas, frightened farmers, a duck, a rooster, a sheep, and a brave friend of the French king. In addition to introducing scientific processes and principles of flight, Up, Up in a Balloon may prompt budding inventors to try, try again—just as the Montgolfier brothers did when they launched the first hot air balloons more than 200 years ago. Up, Up in a Balloon is part of the I Wonder Why book series, written to ignite the curiosity of children in grades K–6 while encouraging them to become avid readers. These books explore the marvels of geology, land forms, weather, environments, and other phenomena related to science and nature.

In order to survive in an environment, organisms have many different physical characteristics that help them regulate their temperature, move, find food, and protect themselves. The students' first analyze data from a case study on the peppered moth, learning about how organisms are adapted to their environment and how a change can affect their ability to survive. Students then explore physical adaptations from feet to teeth to color in order to develop an argument from evidence as to why an organism can survive well in one environment and less well in another.

Graff, tag, slogans, l’art de rue est partout, même là où on ne l’attend pas. Illicite et coloré, il dérange ou embellit. Artistique ou pas, tout petit ou gigantesque, beau ou laid, cet art spontané prend différentes formes. Alors que le tagueur met en scène sa propre signature, le graff peut devenir une icône de la culture d’une époque, comme le fameux « Il est interdit d’interdire », l’oiseau Listen Bird, la maison de Gainsbourg à Paris, sans oublier les oeuvres de Basquiat et Banksy. Accompagné par les illustrations d’une grande richesse de Christine Delezenne, Laurent Chabin, nous aide à nous y retrouver. Mais, entre tagueurs ou graffeurs, il arrive qu’un mur en ait marre de subir toutes ces interventions et, qu’à son tour, il prenne la parole !
