Science Trivia

This book is for anyone who wants to excel at a school science fair. It gives complete guidance for every stage of a successful project, from brainstorming ideas to final presentation. More than a "recipe-style" science fair book, this work promotes the understanding of real science. Twenty prizewinning projects from top national competitions are included: -- How to make the best chocolate-chip cookies -- scientifically! -- Do lefties have slower reaction times than right-handers? -- Does grass grow faster if you cut it short? And more! Kids will love the hip, engaging text, filled with fascinating trivia and wacky science jokes, as well as the very funny illustrations. Solid science presented in a compelling manner makes this a stellar addition to the category.
