You
Are The Scientist |

Like
most children I have fond memories of experimenting in the
kitchen with strange concoctions, making inventions from
junk and watching the critters around home. As a parent
and teacher I saw that kids still do the same things, and
I wanted to support these explorations. The books in You
are the Scientist series are my guides to home experiments
and explorations. Enjoy the journeys!

Toy
Lab
School
Library Journal Review
"Toy Lab should pique youngsters’ interest, even
those who are not usually drawn to scientific experiments,
and give students some ideas for science fair projects as
well."

Indoor Zoo
If you
have a cat, dog, or even spiders on your ceiling, you can
come up with furry, fun science experiments to discover
cool stuff, like whether or not cats really see in the dark.
Other kid's experiments will get you started on making your
own discoveries about animals at home.

Junk Lab
“Upper
elementary teachers might have a hard time keeping Junk
Lab: Stinky, Squishy, Oozy Science on their classroom library
shelf. Students will love the cartoon-like graphics and
teachers will love how the book engages students in inquiry
learning.”
Kim Elpers, NSTA Recommends, 2002
