Book Review: “More Curious Jane”

Looking for fun, hands-on science, art, and cooking projects? This great new Penworthy Prebound Book has it all! More Curious Jane is subtitled “for girls who like to MAKE THINGS!” but this book offers great ideas for all kids. Combining chemistry, physics, engineering, crafts, and even gardening, the oversized (8.5” x 11”) book is filled with groovy graphics, eye-popping photos, and easy to follow instructions. There’s even a chapter on making miniature items, in line with the “make it tiny” trend.

Outdoors, make a launch pad for paper rockets that uses the principle of force to launch them into the air. Learn about electrical circuitry making a card that literally lights up the recipient’s day. In the kitchen, use simple household ingredients to make slime, bouncy eggs and even egg geodes.  Need a gift for a friend or relative? Make them some hand painted napkins or customized “soapsicles” that look like frozen pops but are really rainbows of soap!

This book is a perfect choice to get kids away from screens and interacting with nature, science, and art. It will be a great addition to your library collection, and, as with all Penworthy Prebound Books, its quality is warranted for life. If you are not satisfied with the quality of the book, we will replace it. Our books are designed to circulate and endure, bringing added value to your collection. Find this one here.
