Abstract	The author relates their involvement in the process of testing a picture storybook to teach science concepts. The project asked: If children were learning through a story where the science content was explicit, would children be able to explain the science in the context of the story and then in real-world contexts? Would the learning become embedded? In this article, the author helps to develop a picture storybook to teach science concepts and compares it with a non-fiction text. To compare learning from the picture book with non-fiction texts, the author compared the effect of reading a non-fiction text with reading the story. (ERIC).
