You Are the Scientist series.
Illustrated by
Tim Seeley.
In these series books, Ross encourages children to play with everyday household items--and inhabitants--in scientific ways. While the reliance on a theory-free scientific method focuses more on simple hypothesis testing than on explanation or conceptual development, the models and examples of data collection are excellent. The colorful cartoon illustrations are amusing but stray into nerdy-scientist stereotypes. Glos., ind. [Review covers these You Are the Scientist titles: Indoor Zoo, Junk Lab, Kitchen Lab, and Toy Lab.]
