The Secret Science Project That Almost Ate the School by Judy Sierra pictures by Stephen Gammell

The Secret Science Project That Almost Ate the School by Judy Sierra pictures by Stephen Gammell was very engrossing to the children. The fantasy storybook includes elements of rhyming that make the story fun to read and listen to. The story itself is quite humorous and the pictures are amazing. The bold font type assist the reader in appropriate inflection that makes the reading experience more enjoyable. Upon finishing the story one of the little girls said, "Let's read that one again!" In the future this book could be used to introduce a class to the science fair tradition in elementary school and even to teach children about the importance of using discretion and multiple sources when researching on the internet, because as we have all seen you never know if what you find it true, reliable, and authentic.
