About the author

Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa von Nettesheim (most often referred to by the Latinate appellation Cornelius Agrippa, sometimes Anglicized as Henry Cornelius Agrippa) was an occult writer, theologian, astrologer, and alchemist. His writings on magic and occult philosophy were a significant influence on the later work of Giordano Bruno and John Dee, and thus came to underpin much of the Western esoteric tradition.

First I would like to start with the cover, it's bright, it's appealing to both children and adults. I like how they used the letters in the Periodic Table to spell Unicorn.
I love how as well as learning about the Periodic table, children can also colour the unicorns, especially for younger children. My granddaughter asked if she could look for things around the house from the Periodic Table, ie Silver (Ag), Copper (Cu).
I think this is a great way to learn about the different elements on the Periodic Table as it's fun.
