Illustrated by
Nora Thompson.
Harris opens with a discussion of experiment design and science fair preparation. She then presents a collection of project ideas that provide original twists on standard topics. In addition, plenty of suggestions for customizing and extending the basic experiment are given. Although pitched at novices, the detailed text may be better suited to children with some experience conducting experiments.
