Galileo's Leaning Tower Experiment [SCM]
by Wendy Macdonald Author
(From Amazon): When the great scientist and professor Galileo meets a bright farm boy, Massimo, the teacher becomes the student. On an ordinary day, Galileo encounters Massimo dropping food from a bridge to his uncle passing below in his boat. This simple action makes Galileo rethink Aristotles teachings. Galileo takes an interest in Massimos cleverness, and together, in a series of experiments, the two investigate the science of motion. Kids will love this lively reimagining of Galileos Leaning Tower experiment and be encouraged by Massimos eagerness to learn. With curiosity and a willing teacher, anyone can be a scientist.
