BR11: Wonderful Water

Water is all around us. We have liquid water in rivers and oceans. We have frozen water in ice and glaciers, and we have water vapor in clouds and steam. Water is very important. (p.3)

This book introduce water. I was surprised page 14. It says that, "We can live for four weeks without food, but we can't live for more than about three days without water." I have been thought food is the most important for us to live. Also, it says that our body is about 70% water, our brain is about 85% water and our bones are about 33% water. I was surprised. Our body is made up of water!! Blood is about 50% water.
We use a lot of water at home and according to this book, most of Earth is covered with water, but only about 1% is flesh water that we can drink. The rest is salt water or ice. We use very rare water so we must not waste water. In the world, some place has not any water since there is no rain.
This book tells me a lot of great thing. If you are interested in water, I recommend you to read it.
