A great lesson, that looks and sounds more fun, than it sounds like school. The author does a great job of explaining all the “moving” parts that make rockets work, and how those parts are replicated in the experiment. The author does not shy away from scientific terms, explains them as the project progresses, and make sure to include safety. A great book for all library non-fiction science collections.
