Description

Get ready to play (and learn!) with your food! Discover the truth about yeast, learn how to count calories, conduct experiments with rubbery eggs, and more. Become a Kitchen Scientist by dissecting an onion, decorating a cookie to look like a cell and discovering how gross things like mould help to make delicious foods like yoghurt and bread! The Biology of Bananas uses applied science for a fun and interactive approach to learning for the whole family. It is part of The Curious World of Kitchen Science series. Reading level varies from child to child, but we recommend this book for ages 10-16.
