George’s Secret Key to the Universe by Lucy Hawking & Stephen Hawking If you have a mini scientist interested in learning more about how space and the universe works, this series will definitely be right up their alley. Stephen Hawking worked together with his daughter Lucy to explain complicated science about how our universe works in an accessible way to young space enthusiasts. It’s an educational nonfiction book that reads like a story where we follow George’s voyage through the universe with a scientist, his daughter, and a computer named Cosmos. |

The Bacteria Book: The Big World of Really Tiny Microbes by Steve Mould A fantastic award-winning book for introducing your budding scientist to the microscopic world around us. It’s filled with colourful images and plenty of facts that will make children cry out “EEEEW!” in utter delight. |

The Human Body Theater by Maris Wicks A graphic novel about anatomy that explains to children how the human body is put together, starting with the skeleton and adding layer by layer until we get a whole person. |

Under Earth, Under Water by Aleksandra Mizielinska This book’s a bit more of a miscellaneous subject matter, but boy, is it worth a read! Filled with absolutely gorgeous illustrations, one half of the book explores facts about things found under the earth (animals, edible roots, volcanoes, tunnels, mining drills, you name it) and the other half explores things found underwater. In the middle, readers learn about Earth’s layers down to the core. If your kid is a fan of books like Weird But True, Believe It Or Not!, and Guinness World Records, taking a gander at this book is a must. |
