The simple text and step-by-step illustrations in this book on summer science projects include instructions on how to cross-pollinate flowers. It is one of a series on the four seasons which contain 10-15 science projects and are intended for children to carry out on their own or with the help of an adult. Each book describes projects that are appropriate to the season from making and testing kite designs on windy spring days, to cross-pollinating flowers in summer; from observing and monitoring bird migrations in autumn to testing the weathering effects of water in winter. The illustrated step-by-step instructions allow children to carry out many of the projects on their own or with the help of an adult. All the books have teacher's notes, with suggestions for further extension projects and notes on the National Curriculum. The books are illustrated with photographs of children engaged in the projects, and the finished items.
