This story is instructive from a rudimentary scientific aspect; but the story itself is not very exciting.
Doyle and Fossey, science detectives, are available to solve mysteries with science. The books in the series include scientific information and information about experiments that kids can try out. Great for classrooms and kids interested in science.

Loved this book. Made me want to teach 3rd or 4th grade science. Great characters, a boy and a girl who work together, and challenging problems. Includes science experiments at the end.
