For the budding scientist . . .,
By TooMuch2 Do914 "2-much-2-do" (Laguna Niguel, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Galileo and the Stargazers (Audio CD)
Jim Weiss is an extraordinary storyteller who brings to life the process of scientific inquiry and discovery. My six year old son was so entranced by these stories of Archimedes, Brahe, Kepler, and Galileo he asked if he could go back out to the car to listen to the tape again. Worth listening to again and again.

Excellent CD for Children! My Daughters Love This Story,
This review is from: Galileo and the Stargazers (Audio CD)
Master storyteller Jim Weiss is an incredible storyteller. The stories are so interesting for children. Many of his story CD's have been highly awarded, and this is one of them. This won a gold award from Parents Choice and was mentioned as one of the 25 best audio CD's in the past 25 years by Parents Choice.My family first learned of Weiss's CD's when we checked one out from the library. It was excellent. We then learned about this one and acquired it, and my older daughter has been listening to it a couple evenings a week while she reads. The story is excellent, and she listens to it over and over. The story brings out the imagination of a child and entertains in a good way - unlike some commercial childrens products. Excellent!

Awesome Audio,

This review is from: Galileo and the Stargazers (Audio CD)
My son LOVES this tape! He listens to it every night, and can recite all the information about Galileo, Brahe, Archimedes, etc. In fact, I am now going to buy more of Mr. Weiss' tapes, just so we can have a little variety! Mr. Weiss has a way of entrancing young listeners -- so they are learning while they are being entertained. I highly recommend this!!

This review is from: Galileo and the Stargazers (Audio CD)
I'm not sure how we got this. My 9 year old handed it to me in the car, and we listened to it for days. My 7 year old asks for it, too. I found myself smiling the whole time it was on. My husband was taken in, too. It's just excellent, entertaining, and really good information. I recommend it highly.

I purchased several of the Whitehall/Jim Weiss CDs for a long car trip for our family vacation, and we really enjoyed them all. Listening fun for our whole family...from 5 years old to 47!

This review is from: Galileo and the Stargazers: Including Archimedes and the Golden Crown (Galileo and the Stargazers) (Audio CD)
My 5 year old son was talking about objects displacing water after listening to this book (CD) only once. The story is well told, with the negative aspects mentioned only lightly; just enough to spark discussion, but not enough to frighten younger children. The focus is on the brilliance of the scientists and the adversity they dealt with. We enjoy listening to this story every day or two and we learn a bit more each time.
