Comic Strip Science: The Periodic Table makes learning about science fun!
Each spread features a short, funny comic strip related to the periodic table. Discover which element started a war among dentists, why diamonds aren't forever and the freaky story of how phosphorous was discovered. Around the strips, diagrams and panels give further information on the topic. They are a fantastic way to engage children aged 8 plus with science.
