About the Book:
In this exciting and interactive adventure, readers will determine how their story unfolds, testing hypotheses by choosing the actions they will take. Proving their science knowledge will move them forward, while wrong choices will lead them to dead ends where they learn about more about each scientific concept before turning back to test a new hypothesis. In this engaging and interactive format, readers will learn the theory and even practice the applications of concepts like density, relative motion, acceleration, optics, kinetic and potential energy, and more.
My Review:
There is so much to like about this book. First of all, the book itself is a pick your adventure book. At the bottom of certain pages, the reader can choose how they wish to advance the storyline. Some picks can lead the reader to a dead end. Other choices can lead the reader on a grand forward movement. However, pick the wrong one and boom, end of story! So much fun and good frustration at the same time. For the record, I chose both in order to facilitate a full review.
The actual read is all about science! The "kids" in the book work together to defeat a horrible corporation that has stolen a time machine. Again, more fun! The kids meet Sir Isaac Newton and help him navigate through the world of the 21st century. Little spoiler, he is not so nice as the reader or the "kids" think.
I seriously loved this book for all the reasons above and the adventure part of it is a throwback for me. The story was informative but not boring which was a good thing considering the science elements within. I read this book twice and that is saying something right there. I know kids will love this one!
5 stars for a great book!
