Reviews

"Emily is the science teacher we all wish we had as young kids." --Common Sense Media

"Here are 50, count 'em, 50 home experiments you can count on. Each is a crowd, or home experimenter, pleaser. Emily wrote this book for kids of all ages, and it's full of references to women who changed the world--with science. It doesn't matter where you start; be curious; open to any page; take some notes; Emily will keep you exploring." --Bill Nye, Science Educator, CEO, The Planetary Society
