Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
What fits in your pocket yet holds the continents, the oceans, and all the stars? The Pocket Science Encyclopedia! This small but sturdy volume is organized into four main themed categories: "Chemistry and Physics," "Earth and Weather," "Space," and "The Living World." In these categories are more than 200 two-page entries on more detailed subjects, like "Explosive Volcanoes," "Life Cycle of a Star," and "Simple Invertebrates." To supplement the text information, more than 1,000 photos, illustrations, and diagrams help readers understand even the most difficult scientific topic. This is the book to take on a field trip, vacation, or visit to the boring relatives' house, because it's filled with great tidbits and stuff to investigate. For a bigger, stay-at-home version of this fact-packed little encyclopedia, The DK Science Encyclopedia can't be beat. (Ages 9 to 12) --Therese Littleton

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Science Encyclopedia (Pocket Guides) (Paperback)
I teach home school for varied elementary aged children and this book gives me a quick way to review before I prepare my lessons. Great. Love the pictures and pocket sized means I can take it anywhere for those spontaneous learning moments where the kids ask questions that I am not exactly sure of the details, so I can give the right answer the first time.
