General science never stops! You have to learn earth science, space science, life science, chemistry, and physics - and that's way too much! But before you administer hot compresses to the head and herbal tea for settling the nerves, try Science, Fresh Squeezed!
As American History, Fresh Squeezed!, the first in the BrainJuice series, did for our country's past, Science, Fresh Squeezed! offers everything you need to know and understand about the entire body of scientific knowledge. Extracted from unreadable tomes, reduced to its essence, served up in hilarious poetry by Carol Diggory Shields, and garnished with off-the-wall drawings by Richard Thompson, these 41 poems will make another science class completely unnecessary. No guarantees on grades, though!
Publishers Weekly
For the scientifically and poetically inclined, the 41 poems in Brain Juice: Science, Fresh Squeezed! by Carol Diggory Shields, illus. by Richard Thompson, distill scientific facts into simple formulas via clever rhymes and mnemonics. In the tragic romance, Chemical Reaction, Shields writes, He was acid, she was alkaline./ He wasn't her type, but he thought she looked fine. Political cartoonist Thompson's exuberant drawings combine with the text to supersaturate the pages with wit and levity. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
