Based on a segment of the popular television series Disney Presents Bill Nye the Science Guy, this collection of fun-filled experiments helps children answer such questions as why people hear echoes.
Not to be confused with 19th century American humorist Bill Nye
William Sanford "Bill" Nye, popularly known as Bill Nye the Science Guy, is an American science educator, comedian, television presenter, actor, writer, scientist, and former mechanical engineer, best known in popular media as a science educator.
Twenty years ago, Bill Nye was huge. I don't hear anything about him these days. I don't know why that is. I always liked his approach to science. We used to watch a lot of his videos in class.
It was back then that I purchased this book. It's been much loved, but it was also lost among my stuff for a long time. This is a collection of experiments that deal with elementary science. There is nothing earth-shattering here, but it is a good solid book.
