From Geology to Astronomy, Chemistry to Physics and Biology, clever titles, cartoons, and clear steps make up this experiment treasure. Not to mention the clear explanations, a Who's Who of Scientists and overviews of each discipline is clearly set forth. Experiments major in fun. Dissect a turkey (I'll pass and opt instead for Shake a Slushy). Make sand move to music; swing a bucket of water without spilling; create elephant toothpaste. Watch out! You're learning science. Most use household ingredients. The color-coded margins show all needed items (as well as age range, and if adult help is required).
