What Are Levers?

What Are Levers? is a nonfiction picture book that introduces young readers to the concept of levers as simple machines, using simple text and clear photographs. The book presents various examples of levers, including seesaws, scissors, and crowbars, and demonstrates how these tools make work easier by pivoting around a fulcrum. Each example is paired with a short caption that describes the action and the basic principle of mechanical advantage. Designed for early readers in kindergarten through third grade, the 1.6 reading level makes the material accessible to children just beginning to read.
