Chemicals are like crayons.

The most basic chemicals are called elements.

Adorable pocket-sized scientists will inspire and delight your little learners, while baby-friendly analogies break down complex structures into bite-sized elements that readers of all ages will understand. Who knew elements could be compared to crayons and that the periodic table is so much like a crayon box?

As a companion to introducing chemistry, this fun little board book by Veronica L. Murphy, PhD, and Hilli Kushnir is the ultimate addition to a teacher's STEAM library or on the bookshelf of a curious toddler. It will guide you through understanding how surroundings are made of chemicals.
