It's time to learn some chemistry and have fun at the same time! Did you find chemistry class boring? Now is your chance to learn about the elements of the periodic table in a unique and entertaining form. This book presents some basic information about eighty-five different elements in the form of a poem or song, based on common nursery rhymes or songs. Each is accompanied by a colorful illustration. Instead of Little Miss Muffet, for example, you can read about Little Miss Hydrogen. Or sing about lithium to the tune of Three Blind Mice. Or find out why tantalum is in your iphone to the tune of Frere Jacques. This is definitely the most enjoyable introduction to the periodic table you have ever seen.
