  This book teaches all about different aspects of chemistry from the Mole to the property changes of matter.
  
  This book would be great to help children, as well as adults, learn the many aspects of Chemistry!

  This is a fun way to introduce grade-school children to Chemistry. My son loves the quirky illustrations, and I love the valuable information.

  Kiddo enjoyed this one, although as usual with Basher science books there was too much of an emphasis on puns and some of the more complicated concepts get overly simplified. It does give a good grounding in the basics of chemistry however and gives a jumping off point for more learning on the subject. It paired nicely with the Basher periodic table book, a more complicated periodic table book, a DK science encyclopedia, and a National Geographic chemistry set.

  A book of definitions. It jumps around and doesn't build upon the previous information. For example, it will talk about elements and processes that aren't explained until several pages later. Obviously not written by a teacher or someone who understands how learning best works. And this is not a children's book, even though the publisher says yes. It's better for teens.
