Nothing spectacular here, but this will be a good place for my kids to reference in the future as the are researching science products. There are a load of great science factoids and they are properly sourced as well so if you want to do further reading you can. It’s only a 3 outta 5 because the material is dry and unfortunately it was more often than not repetitive.
