Description

Book Synopsis: Read and find out about shadows and how they work in this colorfully illustrated nonfiction picture book.

When you run, your shadow runs. But you can never catch it!

What makes a shadow? Where does it come from? When the sun is shining, everything has its own shadow—trees, houses, cars, even clouds and planes way up in the sky. You have a shadow, too. As the sun sets, all shadows become part of a much larger one—the night!
