Join Addylin and Papa John as they turn an ordinary backyard into a place full of discovery, questions, and exciting experiments. From a bubbling volcano to colors that seem to dance, each moment invites kids to explore how science really works—through curiosity, observation, and action.

Designed for kids ages 9–13, this book blends engaging storytelling with simple, step-by-step experiments that children can actually do. With real measurements, easy-to-follow directions, and built-in safety reminders, young readers can confidently explore science on their own or alongside a parent or teacher.

This isn’t just a book kids read—it’s a book they experience.

Inside, kids will:

Follow a fun and relatable story that keeps them engaged from beginning to end
Complete real science experiments using simple, easy-to-find materials
Build confidence through clear, step-by-step instructions
Learn important STEM concepts like reactions, motion, and cause-and-effect
Develop curiosity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills
Practice safe learning habits with gentle guidance throughout
Enjoy meaningful time with family while learning together

Perfect for homeschool families, classrooms, or curious kids at home, this book offers a refreshing way to learn without pressure or overwhelm. There are no complicated setups or expensive supplies—just simple experiments, big discoveries, and a story that makes it all come together.

Whether your child is new to science or already loves experimenting, Addylin and the Backyard Science Day will inspire them to keep asking questions, keep exploring, and keep discovering.

Because science isn’t just something you learn.
It’s something you experience.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
