Riassunto

This Book Thinks You’re a Scientist, developed by the Science Museum, London, as a complement to their new interactive gallery for children, explores seven key scientific areas: force and motion, electricity and magnetism, earth and space, light, matter, sound, and mathematics. Each spread centers on an open-ended question or activity, with space on the page for the child to write, draw, or interact with the book. Bend water with static power. Pack a suitcase for a trip to space. Design a new musical instrument. At the end of the book, there is a section for children to record their own guided independent investigations, including surveys and space to log the results of their experiments.Hand-drawn illustrations and a collage-style photographs encourage creativity and help children to think like a scientist by noticing details, questioning everything, and dreaming up new ideas.

Recensione:

'It's a book that will make every child enjoy and understand science. An outstanding book, highly recommended for all families with children aged 5 - 11, and equally useful in the classroom.'--Parents in Touch

'Any science book worth its salt can carry across its themes and messages by encouraging you not to just read about cool science, but do some very cool science experiments yourself! That's why this book encourages you to imagine, experiment and create with a ton of really fantastic ideas and ways to use the book to do some practical demonstrations of the theories shared in this fascinating tome.'--Read It Daddy blog

'Two key areas stand out as being particularly impressive: the presentation of the book and the user-friendly nature of the investigations.'--The Bookbag

'You can't just pick up this book and read it there are loads of things to do in it and you can take it anywhere because the experiments don't have to be done in a science lab.' --Children reviewers for SCOOP magazine

'With compelling photographs and illustrations, each page brings science to life creating the perfect book for children who love to investigate and explore.' --ni4kids

'Through a series of creatively and quirkily illustrated prompts, readers are encouraged to enage in their own hands-on experiments and explore science by questioning everything. It's a great way for your children to the spend the afternoon, out in the sun, experimenting on things you probably never thought they would' --Engineering and Technology magazine
