Description

With photos, experiments, and more, this "appealing and highly informative" science book from the beloved TV host is "a winner" (School Library Journal).
Science educator, TV host, and New York Times–bestselling author Bill Nye is on a mission to help young people understand and appreciate the science that makes our world work. Featuring a range of subjects—physics, chemistry, geology, biology, astronomy, global warming, and more—this profusely illustrated book covers the basic principles of each science, key discoveries, recent revolutionary advances, and the problems that science still needs to solve for our Earth. Nye and coauthor Gregory Mone present the most difficult theories and facts in an easy-to-comprehend, humorous way. They interviewed numerous specialists from around the world, in each of the fields discussed, whose insights are included throughout. Also included are experiments kids can do themselves to bring science to life!
"Wordplay and wry wit put extra fun into a trove of fundamental knowledge." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
