desertcart.com: The Kingfisher Science Encyclopedia (Kingfisher Encyclopedias): 9780753466889: Taylor, Charles, Editors of Kingfisher: Books Review: Beautifully done encyclopedia - I ordered this for my kids to accompany them through our homeschool science. It has been fantastic for that. It's also enjoyable to flip through and read during free time. It's a great encyclopedia. The topics are categorized really well with accompanying pages included at the bottom so you don't have to try and find topics that go together. Shipping was quick and packaging was done well. The book arrived in perfect condition. Science is not a strength or passion of mine. However, this encyclopedia makes it easy and fun for me. I'm very pleased with this purchase and look forward to more Kingfisher encyclopedias. Review: Fascinating Book! - This is a very thorough book and includes many pages of interesting information. I just wish I could keep it, but I am giving it as a Christmas gift to my nieces. They are 10 and 7 and love everything about science, chemistry, how things work, etc. Should keep them busy for hours. And will be a great reference tool as they get older.

Fascinating Book!
This is a very thorough book and includes many pages of interesting information. I just wish I could keep it, but I am giving it as a Christmas gift to my nieces.

This book takes the "scary" out of science!
Buy this book for your grade-schooler. Buy it for your middle-schooler or high-schooler. Buy it for yourself! This book does a great job of breaking down the science that is everywhere around us - and makes it easy to comprehend with clear description and basic illustrations. Great book, great update!

Great homeschool resource at your fingertips.
My children have loved this addition to our homeschool library. It has been a life saver for my two boys doing Classical Conversations Challenge A & B. They use it weekly for their research topics. Science is my least favorite topic and thus I felt we needed an encylcopedia to give us a science resource we needed at our fingertips.

Every book shelf needs this book
Great to have and use. Includes enough on everything you can think of to get a child going on a subject. Kingfischer makes homeschooling fun as there is a page that explains a concept with enough information that a student can google names, ideas, or topics and spend hours connecting to web pages that enhance the lesson

Excellent book
Very clear scientific explanations, and excellent illustrations. Easy to read, and particularly suitable for children, though adults will enjoy the book too.
