I am a Grand Ma and improved my Grand Ma ratings with all my grand children when I gave this to a 7 year old for Christmas. Cool, awsome, and other such things that are not often associated with Grand Ma's. All that said, I enjoyed the book myself as I have a hard and fast rule, don't give anything you would not like to receive. It is also the sort of book you can go back to over and over again, and, I am assured, it has a high swap value!!!

This revision guide summarises clearly and concisely all the science you need up to and including Year 9, with sections on Life Processes, Materials and Physical Processes. And it's great for learning because it explains everything in an entertaining and accessible format (check out the cold polar bear and the elephant in stilettos!). Our children have worked steadily through it preparing for exams, and the pages are getting dog-eared.

Conclusion: a comprehensive and well-written guide to KS3 Science. Wish we'd had books like this when I was at school.

5.Essential A2 Biology for OCR (Essential A2) by: Glenn Toole, Sue Toole

This is the single most useful resource available to people doing A2 OCR biology and I highly recommend it. The textbook assigned (Biology 2) is designed to cover all students aiming from A-E whereas this book is for students with higher capabilities, more in the A-b range. My teacher uses this book over Biology 2 and its always fun to enter a lesson and know every word that is going to come out his mouth.

this book is ok, i suppose it is the only choice if u r doing the aqa
syllabus, only a few bad points, first few chapters there are practically no worked examples, at the end of each chapter there are
some summary questions with the answers at the back of the book,
sometimes i dont know how on earth did they arrive at that answer because
they dont have worked examples to help u,i had to ask teacher to explain how they got the answers.

Its only the last few units, they have some worked examples.
Also they put examination style questions, but no answers for that too,
so u dont know if you are right or wrong unless u get the teacher
to explain to u

this book is a little thin, should have ... Read More:

I'm surprised at how overwhelmingly positive all the feedback on this book is - it's pretty decent but I've got some reservations.

Firstly, the good bits: it's nicely structured and covers a comprehensive range of topics. It is mainly very read-able and doesn't skimp on the more basic detail. Plus it doesn't shy away from taking a few pages to explain a topic fully and clearly.

My main bugbear with it is the slightly patronising, primary-school tone it has most of the time. The book is littered with pictures of a cartoon character called "Fizz" (as in, fizz-ics... geddit?) doing "hilarious" things to illustrate some of the points. OK, so I'm a mature student and grumpy git, but I'm certain that it would have annoyed me just ... Read More:

My 12 year old son picked this up and read in from front to back in preference to playing computer games - says it all, really! He adored it, but was slightly upset that not all elements were represented. I suggested it would have made it too large and not in the excellent 'pocket book' category, but he is correct that it is not only the wierd and wonderful elements that are missing but some basic ones too. Any chance of a 'Periodic Table Book 2' to fill in some gaps?
The subsequent 'Physics: Why Matter Matters' is even better and we can't wait for the Biology one in Oct 2008. Hope the series keeps going!
