With school break just around the corner I have a great book to share with you - perfect for those lazy days of summer reading! Nick and Tesla's Solar-Powered Showdown: A Mystery With Sun-Powered Gadgets You Can Build Yourself by "Science Bob" Pflugfelder and Steve Hockensmith. This book is the 6th in the series but can stand alone as well. In it we meet Nick and Tesla twins who have had many adventures. They have a strong knowledge of science and a lot of brain power!
What I really like about his book is the doodles, pictures and experiments! Yes, experiments! My second born love science and especially hands on science so this book is perfect for him because it is interactive reading. What a fun way to bring summer reading alive!
