A scientifically minded young reader will enjoy this book and will love undertaking the science projects which start with an excellent explanation of the scientific method. The reader will learn about science fairs and helpful tips to make the project successful. Science experiment safely is stressed at the beginning, as well as, in each experiment throughout the book. Experiments are completely detailed with nothing left to chance. In Experiment 2.6 the reader makes sure there is a control, but the reader is instructed to keep the glasses undisturbed and at the same temperature so that all of the variables are contained and controlled. Nice. Each experiment is modeled by a question, hypotheses, procedure, results and conclusions. If the reader pays attention to the format when she/he gets to the science project ideas, and does her/his own original project everything will fall into place. The project ideas are a great jumping off point and they should percolate with other ideas. With each set of experiments, there is a wealth of information about molecules, polymers, and plastic. With plastics all around us, this is an excellent book to guide one through experimentation with familiar items. The book carefully mirrors information from the American Plastics Council., Children's Literature
