Review quotes
Praise for the Science Comics series:
This series—written by a handful of authors—seems determined to offer a useful introduction to anything a curious grade-school student might wonder about. The insight behind these books is a powerful one. So much information about the world around us is actually better conveyed visually, through charts, illustrations, and sequential panels, than purely using words. —New York Times Like having a Time Life Science Library in comic books. Which is awesome! —Popular ScienceJNF062030 - Juvenile Nonfiction | Comics & Graphic Novels | Science & Nature
