Magical Elements of the Periodic Table Presented Alphabetically by the Elemental Dragons by Sybrina Durant

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Chockful of interesting facts, and the jewel-colored illustrations just knocked my socks off!

Magical Elements of the Periodic Table Presented Alphabetically By The Elemental Dragons is the latest techno-magical treatment of the principles associated with elements and the periodic table by Sybrina Durant, and it is amazing. I believe I loved this one even more than Book One! While it is chockful of interesting facts, the jewel-colored illustrations just about knocked my socks off! I would have loved to have this book when I was in elementary school.

Each page features information about a single element on the Periodic Table, selected to represent a letter of the alphabet, and many are the less well-known or more exotic ones. The facts about each element are detailed and interesting. One of the page highlights for me was the magical ability associated with the touch of each dragon's element-tipped tail. The author used facts revealed about the element to come up with something creative for each one and I looked forward to seeing what it would be with each new letter of the alphabet.

With its colorful illustrations and fascinating supporting facts, I recommend this latest MAGICAL ELEMENTS OF THE PERIODIC TABLE book to upper-elementary and middle-grade readers interested in the sciences.

I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving an Advanced Review Copy from the author through Lone Star Book Blog Tours.
