Product Description

Each of these handsomely illustrated columes features a true story of scientific exploration, and each focuses on a famous man or woman of science. The texts are documentary in style and filled with facts, but there is also an element of drama that makes each story fascinating reading. A two-page spread at the back of the book summarizes the scientist's life work and achievements.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get Shocked by Science, July 7, 2004
This short and easy-to-read book (especially appropriate for 2nd thru 5th grade) provides a meaty and interesting story of Ben Franklin's experiments with electricity. Without getting too technical, the story explains things that Franklin discovered about which materials conduct electricity and which don't, the connections he made between static electricity and lightning and details of his famous experiment with a kite in a thunderstorm. Very interesting and nicely illustrated with full-color pictures throughout.
