A good overview for kids of a lot of different scientific concepts. The only two small notes that I had (which caused me to rate it a 4 rather than a 5) is:

Le dieci Scoperte che hanno cambiato il mondo, così recita il sottotitolo, in altrettante complesse declinazioni evolutive di ciascuna. Luce, suono, vita, ruota, DNA, numeri e una carrellata di protagonisti da Lavoisier, Da Vinci, Galileo, Pitagora ai Curie e Mandeleev seguono il percorso umano tra tentativi, successi e futuri scenari possibili. Non è una strada che si interrompe bruscamente, il progresso prosegue.
This is a beautifully illustrated and uniquely organized nonfiction survey of basic scientific discoveries and principles. A detailed table of contents and thorough glossary bookend the bold and detailed illustrations. Unfortunately the lack of sources and the missed opportunity to provide resources for further information.
