I a am middle school science teacher and have recommended this book to all my students. This book follow's the same format as the author's first book "The Complete Handbook of Science Fair Projects" (also a great book), but this book contains nifty projects and ideas that are about current issues and topics (so kids will stay interested for sure), about 35 full project instructions with detailed diagrams, including materials needed, useful hypothesis statements, procedures, etc., excellent examples of what is expected to make it to elite circle of "finalists" at any science fair. Lots of photos from science fairs around the country, tons of websites to check out for more information on any scientific subject; where to find scientific supplies; list of every science fair in existence; tips and suggestions on how to do a science fair project from start to finish.....and on and on, it has everything you ever want on a book of this subject matter. Very well written and easy to use. I would give it 6 stars if I could!
