Press & Blog Reviews

Contains "bite sized" scientific facts that are just enough to whet a child's appetite and curiosity without overloading them with information. When you couple this book with the internet links which often lead to some cool experiments requiring no specialist equipment and items which most parents will have readily available, actually makes this a very useful book that positively encourages questions and further investigation. A springboard to more thorough investigation and study of science.
