Science Books
Usborne
science books are a favorite of homeschoolers, science teachers,
librarians and students, alike. With information cut up into bite
sized pieces and tons of illustrations, these science books make what
can be a dry subject come completely alive.
So give your kids a head start or fan the flames
of your child's interest in physics and biology with a shelf full of these
titles. (Or think of these books as your own private tutors to
help your student get over the science humps in the road.)
Our science books are internet
linked - extra facts, projects, games and information at your
fingertips.
I've listed some of my favorite Science Books

Usborne Complete Book of
the Microscope
 Learning Magazine 2000 Teacher's Choice
Award
Where can you find a decent book on the microscope, how to use it and
what the images mean? Well, naturally, from Usborne! I saw
this book at the Los Alamos National Laboratory museum store and felt
proud. This is a great classic on the microscope and no young
scientist's house should be without it.
