"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Grade 4-8-These introductions offer clear, basic information, without oversimplification, in an appealing format. The books cover each element's history, where it is found, how it is extracted and purified, how it is used, and its chemical reactions. Phosphorous also includes fertilizers and environmental issues. Sulfur has sections on its role in fossil fuels and rubber tires, warfare explosives, and medicine. Numerous full-color photographs, drawings, and diagrams, as well as boxed sections with additional information, supplement the texts. The explanations and accompanying visuals that describe specific chemical reactions are especially helpful. In addition, each book has a double-page spread devoted to the periodic table. Useful additions.
