(4) 4-6 Fact Finders: Scary Science series. Drinking vomit, performing your own appendectomy, inviting a snake bite--all in the name of science? This book looks at daring experiments, deadly research side-effects, and other "groundbreaking craziness." This high-interest topic will attract readers, even though there's not much depth to the actual information. The choppy text, which plays up the sensational, is supported by captioned photos and fact boxes. Reading list. Glos., ind.
