Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Fun Science
Claudia Martin · 2023
Claudia Martin's Fun Science: Experiments with Plants delivers exactly what it promises — hands-on, accessible plant-science experiments for primary-school children, published by a well-regarded UK educational imprint under Hachette and stocked by major retailers. The household-materials approach means kids can actually do these experiments, and the step-by-step illustrated format is appropriate for the age group. It is narrow in scope by design, and UK readers will find it slightly more accessible than US readers, but within its lane it is a genuinely solid educational title.
