The case of the gasping garbage

Ok, so I'm not really giving this book 4 stars as far as story telling goes, I'm giving it 4 stars for being a great book for getting your kids turned on to science! The cases/experiments were easy for little ones to follow, and I LOVED the last sections of the book where they give you step by step instructions for doing some of the same experiments on your own, as well as how to make your own science lab and be your very own scientist! I read this aloud to all my kids (grades K, 3, and 5) and they all enjoyed it!
