Extraordinary Science!

Vicki Cobb and Kathy Darling do a great job of involving kids in science experiments and theories. Usually science is thought of as a boring and dull subject but the authors of this book turn that stereotype around in no time at all! Kids are trying out experiments, enjoying themselves, having fun...all while they are learning true, scientific facts. The experiements are lots of fun and allow the children to become involved in something other than television or video games in this day and age. Travel around your neighborhood with this book and you will be sure to have a great time while learning interesting science facts.
