Scholastic Discover More: The Elements

Description:

Scholastic Discover More is a revolutionary new nonfiction line pairing stunning print books with corresponding interactive digital books that extend the learning online.

THE ELEMENTS unlocks a free 64-page digital companion book, ELEMENTS COLLECTOR, offering even more information, photos, and videos!

Discovering the elements is discovering life itself. What are we made of? What keeps us and our universe in motion? Everything we are, and see around us, and create, is made up of a little over 90 elements, many of which have existed since the beginning of time and space. This book is more than a walk through the periodic table. It explains the tremendous forces of star birth and death that create elements. It chronicles the history of their discovery and the impact of their science on every aspect of our daily lives, from medicine to technology, architecture to the environment. Beautiful photographs and modern graphics make apparently ordinary substances, their extraction and their changes look as extraordinary as they truly are.


Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

It’s amazing what a bold font choice can do. Each chapter announces itself with huge text spread across two pages, and just like that, you perk up, wondering if this will outshine your typical nonfiction book about the elements. Indeed it does. Filling the oversize pages with eye-popping photos, sidebars, and factoids coming at you every which way, this entry in the three-tiered Discover More series (this volume is for the expert readers tier) is like a trip to a museum—every reader will find at least a few things worth poring over. Each well-trod topic and organizational device receives a fresh, revitalized consideration. Examples: the table of elements is followed by a photographic version, impressive numbers are stretched for all they’re worth across page bottoms, and so on. Best of all, a unique code allows downloading of a digital companion volume of similarly interesting content. Grades 7-10. --Daniel Kraus

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fascinating Book for Kids and Adults!

S. · September 19, 2015

This is an amazing book! My son cannot put it down! We are constantly hearing "Did you know?" and then he will proceed to explain some fascinating information he has learned. The book is well laid out and it is filled with pictures that are nice to look at. The information is not over whelming, and in easy to understand language to keep kids interested and coming back for more. The book does not give any age group but my son is eight years old and an avid reader.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for the child who loves science

K.K. · December 4, 2014

My son has loved science since he was a toddler and I bought this for him when he was five. Before he could read, the very vivid and colorful pictures held his attention for hours (he loves books) and as he learned to read he continued to regularly pick it up and devour it (the radioactive elements are his favorite). Now he's in first grade and already understands how an atom works and how they can react with each other.My son actually lost his at school (even though his name was in it) and I purchased a second one as a birthday gift to replace it because he missed it so much.A great book for any child that loves science through about 5th grade. The colorful photos and illustrations set it apart from a lot of science books which resemble text books.

4.0 out of 5 stars All in all we're pleased with it just wish it had a whole lot ...

Book is very informative and has loads of alternative matter (pun intended). Tells you what the element could be used for, has been used for, and offers some experiments for young ones. All in all we're pleased with it just wish it had a whole lot more!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book

"The Elements" is prepared visually impressing with striking images and managed to become very informative at the same time.It's a great supplementary book for the kids in their science lessons. It also shows that a book can be fun while teaching a "serious" subject like the periodic table.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for anyone interested in a quick clear background on elements.
