Horrible Science: Bulging Box Of 20 Brilliant Books

Good books

My 7yo son loves these books. He's an advanced reader. I think the content of the books would appeal to children as old as 12. My son tried to tell me he wasn't going to do his other school work if I didn't let him have another one of the books from the box after he finished the first one. :D Although I have some curriculum, I try to let my son's interests guide our homeschooling. These books make it easy. The book on electricity kicked off our week of learning about electricity - putting the snap-circuits (also a great purchase) to use.

My 11 y/o has a rather dry science curriculum, this is a great supplement. It has tons of little activities and experiments. There is also a quiz at the end of the book, nothing crazy. We learn new and interesting facts and the books do a great job of explaining some of the more complex topics.

These books are great read for my kids, they have lots of jokes and my daughters keep giggling while reading them.

The books are great however the quality of paper and the binding is poor. The pages come off easily from the spine and the paper is very thin and dull.

If your kid likes learning about science they will find them great fun

Bought these for my 8 year old (supposedly reluctant reader)son. Many boys find reading a hard fit, especially if they are given only fiction. So many boys crave good non-fiction, and this is it! Especially for kids with a smart-aleck gene! Funny, irreverent, and cute (also gross at times!0. My son will read these for hours, has memorized almost all of them, and recites them on a daily basis! When he finishes these, we're on to the Horrible Histories!

Purchased these for a family member who is a teacher - so that he can keep them in his classroom. They are interesting short chapter reads about science - that make science fun to learn. His plan is to use these books with the kids to keep them quiet when they finish tests! These books really are awesome for a wide range of ages!

My son loves every one of these books. The set has kept him busy for a long time, and he now wants even more because these are so good. They make "science" fun and interesting, so I am happy to have him spend time reading them.

My son loves it~

My 9 year old daughter loves them and she has learned more from them than what she has learned in school for the last 3 years.

My child like it, very intersting . we get 20 books. thanks.

Sono libri eccezionali, interessanti, avvicinano alla lettura in inglese dei testi scientifici "da grandi". Esiste la loro versione anche in italiano, in inglese vanno bene per i ragazzi con livello di inglese a partire da B1. Ai liceali del 1, 2 o 3 anno aiuteranno a famigliarizzare con l'inglese scientifico in una maniera divertente e non noiosa. Va benissimo per quelli che seguono il programma Cambridge. Se non c'e' il problema della lingua, vanno bene anche per i ragazzi delle medie.
