About this listen
Books are made with paper. But what if we tried to make a book with metal? Copper, tin, gold, silver—would any of those materials work to make a book? Find out more about metal, its properties, and how it is produced. Then decide if you really could make a book out of metal.

What the critics say
A series that describes materials and natural resources and uses creativity to show how items are made. A sectioned table of contents follows short, easy paragraphs with bolded vocabulary paired with color captioned photos. Each title gives a brief introduction about how something could be made, (Can You Make A Frying Pan Out of Paper?), followed by the history of the resource, the various types, how it is used, and then a question on whether the title of the series is possible. An activity with the resource, such as growing a plant in a glass jar, (Can You Make A Pillow Out of Glass?) is included. The back matter includes a glossary, read more, internet sites, and an index. While the titles may be misleading at first, it helps grab the attention of readers to learn how a material is made and used in our everyday lives. VERDICT For beginning readers who want to know how common items are made; potentially good for a STEAM learning environment. (Hilary Tufo, Columbus Metropolitan Library, OH)
