This book is suited for elementary age children, with a reading and interest level for grades 2nd through 5th. Children can be introduced at an early age to the growing field of science whether it is to think scientifically in everyday life or to get them thinking about one day choosing a science career. This book is useful for children who like science and even those who don't realize that they are acting like scientists when they observe and ask questions. This book also gives a positive message of how and why a child can be a scientist for a career one day.
