Caroline Arnold's Books

Did you know that you can tell time by the sun, cook with the sun, or make pictures with the sun? This book for children ages 5 to 10 presents ten fun activities that use energy from the sun, including making a sun clock, shadow puppets, and sun reflectors. From an ice cube race to learning how to watch a solar eclipse, this book uses easily found materials and simple directions to learn about the sun and solar energy.

The author's experience as an artist and working with children provided the inspiration for many of the projects in the book. Sun Fun was originally published as a hardcover book in 1981 by Franklin Watts. You may be able to find it in your library.
