The Explosive World of Volcanoes with Max Axiom, Super Scientist (Graphic Library: Graphic Science series)

I purchased the entire series of these books for my first grader son after he found one at the local library. They are an easy to read graphic novel format with the same look as superhero comics. Using bright colors, action scenes and simple language they explain some basic scientific concepts in a way that children can not only understand but enjoy. As I hoped they got my son interested in knowing more about the topics. Definitely worth the money and fun to read even for adults unfamiliar with the topics themselves.

The series is a great intro to science - not comprehensive, but enough to get a kid introduced to the topic in a fun way.

My wife uses these in her 5th grade classroom and the students really like them. She found it especially useful with reluctant readers.

GOOD

The idea of these books is great, but they need to make the book longer with more of a plot so that children have time to get into the adventure and learn the information.

My five year old grandson liked it.

Fabulous book for Year 3 - especially appealing for reluctant readers. Took this on teaching placement and it was well in demand. Very reasonably priced too.
