Early Childhood Studies faculty and CODEL doctoral candidate Adria Taha-Resnick has been awarded Best Chemistry Book for Girls in Elementary School by the national organization Girls who STEM.
The Fabulous and Fun World of Chemistry!: A science book for girls by girls!! was the organization's pick for the best chemistry book for girls in elementary school, as it includes many scientific concepts and experiments presented in an age-appropriate fashion. Topics are discussed with the help of a character named Daisy, who feels like a trusted friend guiding little learners along the path of chemistry knowledge.
Those who purchased and reviewed this chemistry book wrote that it was a terrific way to introduce the concepts of chemistry to young girls (and boys) interested in flexing their scientific muscles in the world of chemistry.
At a price point of around $13, it’s not an overly expensive option, and the quality of the information in such an easy-to-follow format more than justifies that price. It has a rating of 5.0 on Amazon, and although there aren’t a ton of reviews, we think it’s still an excellent choice for teaching young girls the concepts of chemistry in a relatable manner.
