I was so excited to find this book -- it contains so many of my favorite science experiments plus adds in several experiments I have not used with my students before. I like how the author put in "How It Works" and "Be Curious" sections - so not only are experiments laid out, but also the science behind it is there for the reader and the "Be Curious" section encourages the reader to answer questions as they perform or finish with the experiment. Excellent layout and organization! Two thumbs up for this book!
