Industry Reviews
"This handsome volume introduces young readers to all 118 currently known elements. But it's a lot more entertaining than it sounds: Congdon, the daughter of a physicist, a former teacher, and now a professional artist, has poured her energies into kid-friendly commentary and engaging illustrations. . . . Upbeat and energetic, this is a great introduction to chemistry and beyond."-Booklist
