We stumbled upon the Basher Periodic Table book at our local B&N by accident. I’ve got a 6 year old boy who is obsessed with science, and we’ve read everything even remotely age-appropriate and then some. They simply don’t make books on topics like physics and chemistry for his age, and I’ve been desperate to feed his interest.
He spent the early part of the summer interested in radium and memorizing the atomic numbers of it and his other favorite elements. When I saw the periodic table book, I was sold. We brought it home and LOVED it. We are now on a mission to collect all of these books (then I’ll probably get the more humanities-driven books for his sister and him later).
These are so well written and illustrated that kids are drawn to these otherwise dry concepts and ideas. So far his mind is blown by the mixture and compound pages, but trust me that we’ll read them all. He’ll be able to teach his first grade science class next year, and maybe even the fifth graders.

Wish I'd had this in school!
By ChaosCreatorx5 on April 6, 2017
I wish I had had this book in high school! While it doesn't tell you how to solve equations it does make memorizing different terms a lot easier by giving them character that helps explain what they do and why they're important. Perfect for my budding scientist and great to pull from to teach beginning chemistry!
