Reviews

[Deanna Sutter · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a fun book that the kids really liked. My seven year old loved flipping open all the flaps. I hope to find more in the series. It explained the basics of science. The kids were able to understand the basics of atoms, DNA, cells and elements. We will be able to do further study off of these subjects now.

I love all the pop ups but can get a little complicated

Lots of interesting bits that's proudly not suitable for under 4s due to subject matter and the book's rippable folds
