Leda is having a bad day, because Gravity is in a BAD MOOD. From upsets at home to disasters at school, Leda lets everyone know about Grouchy Gravity. 

Personifying Gravity is a stroke of genius. Not only do we see Leda struggling with it, but we get little lessons that teach us more about the concept. A fun science concept book for elementary schools. The characters are depicted as a variety of ethnicities.
