Cool Chemistry

Reading this book is almost like watching television. The pages are are colorful and for the most part broken up into little easy to digest info bytes. It starts out by discussing the difference between physical and chemical changes. Some other topics include rust, explosions, cooking, acid test, chemical discovery timeline/map, and inventions. Several pages introduce chemistry in nature, clean water, film development, and pollution. There are activities suggested throughout. Karen Woodworth-Roman, Children's Science Book Review
