The author has included many science experiments in this book that children will want to do. The experiments are all hands on and use materials that everyone has easy access too. Each experiment asks questions to think about at the end of it. These questions are supposed to get the person doing the experiments to think about what he/she has learned and accomplished by performing the experiment. This book is great for science teachers. Math could be connected to some of the experiments that required exact measurements. One in particular was entitled, "Why Does A Dead Fish Float?" ( )
