Illustrated by
Thomas Flintham.
In this chemistry overview on eight double-page pop-up spreads, readers can explore topics ranging from atoms and elements to water, air, and radioactivity. Some of the movable features creatively present content, such as mini-booklets for scientist profiles and flaps that allow comparisons of molecular structures, while others are mainly gimmicky. Cartoonlike illustrations and experiment ideas round out the pages.
