Science Experiments with a Microscope

By Shar Levine and Leslie Johnstone

Book Overview

See a whole new world So many things are invisible to the naked eye, but under a microscope they spring into colourful life. These hands-on science experiments show kids how to glimpse this magical, microscopic universe. Microscopic basics cover microtomes, wet mounds, and smear and squash slides. Then take a close-up look at animal bone marrow, cartilage and fur; the slime on your teeth in the morning; pollen and grass; stinging nettles; and many other objects. Dozens of amazing colour photographs and drawings show the fabulous world that a microscope will reveal. Fascinating science projects encourage children to embark on their own microscopic explorations. Open up a whole new world: have fun and learn about science at the same time.
