Teachers Praise Young Authors New Science Book for Children Utilizing Common Core Standards

Fort Lauderdale, FL -- (SBWire) -- 07/09/2015 --Teachers are praising the eleven year old, Lexi Schwartzberg, author and creator of a new book, Lily Droplet's Amazing Adventure: The Water Cycle (ISBN: 978-0-99629-331-0), for addressing science topics that appeal to young children.

The Common Core is a set of high-quality academic standards in mathematics and English language arts/literacy (ELA). These learning goals outline what a student should know and be able to do at the end of each grade. The Common Core language arts and literacy standards attempt to correct the fiction/nonfiction imbalance by placing more emphasis on reading nonfiction—starting with an equal emphasis on literature and informational text in elementary school. At nearly all grade levels, students are expected to develop research skills across content areas with a strong focus on nonfiction, including literary nonfiction.

After receiving an assignment in school to write about the water cycle from the point of view of a water droplet, Lily's Adventure began. The talented young author quickly turned the one paragraph assignment into a full-length story, incorporating the science and lessons through dynamic and charming characters. The illustrations are equally delightful. Lexi worked with her Aunt Danielle, an amazing and talented artist to illustrate the book. The two worked together to capture the fun and interesting path of Lily Droplet's Amazing Adventure.

During the course of the book, Lily experiences all the wonders of the water cycle. Lily Droplet's Amazing Adventure teaches the concepts of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation; joining her along the journey are many friends and relatives, each with a unique personality expressed throughout the book.
