Unseen by the Naked Eye: Heaven and Earth

Unseen by the Naded Eye: Heaven and Earth
Phaidon

On a recent trip to the book store I found a fascinating book at a phenomenal price.  My kids have enjoyed looking through it. The images are taken through either a microscope or a telescope.  So you are given the opportunity to see atoms, ice crystals, grains of pollen, snowflakes, butterfly wings, cloud formations and so much more.  If you are looking for a book that will grab their attention this is a wise choice.  Then while you have them talking and exploring you can take them deeper.

Here is a picture of Duncan searching for his favorite photo.



"Here it is Mom.  It is a photo of someone's large intestine." 
"Oh lovely, dear."

@ Cindy - When they find it, they get stuck there for a while.
