Fascinating scientific concepts are simplified and explored in ways that kids will enjoy in the Magic Science series. Each book presents 16 simple experiments that can be performed with common objects found around the house. Surprising Experiments with Sound uses rhythm, voice, water and more reveal what sound is and how it travels. Each experiment includes illustrated, step-by-step instructions and a simple scientific explanation of what is happening during the experiment. Full-color illustrations on each page.

Gr 1–5—The first of four books in this series provides readers with experiments related to sound using everyday objects found around the house. Through items such as paper tubes, balloons, water bottles, milk jugs, and spoons, and concepts that include sound waves, amplification, vibration, and the transmission of sound are demonstrated. A brief paragraph ("Why Does It Happen?") explains the results of each experiment. Though the projects are easy and accessible, some adult guidance would be helpful, especially for younger children. Reminiscent of old elementary school projects (a paper-cup-and-string telephone, cardboard tube rain stick), this book, with its soft but colorful illustrations and clear, step-by-step instructions, introduces a new generation to fun science experiments with a fresh approach. Enjoyable and inspiring.—Denise Moore, O'Gorman Junior High School, Sioux Falls, SD
"This series of four books would be a wonderful addition to any home or school library. There are many hours of fun and educational activities in these books, and each experiment is simple and inexpensive to complete. Parents and teachers do not need a background in physics or a large budget to help children engage with science and see how exciting it can be. The earlier we can stimulate interest in science the better! These books would be appropriate for elementary school libraries."
