Reader Description

Science is all around us, even in the kitchen. This book will tell you about electrons in lemons, bacteria that eat sweat, and waves in the kitchen!

After you have completed the Reader

Try doing the lemon battery experiment on page 21. Does it give your tongue a zap? Or you could test the idea on page 8. Add some detergent to the water and oil. Does the oil still float on the surface?
