This book is a sure winner in any middle school science class. The colorful illustrations and the overall layout is wonderful. It's not intimidating at all, even the most reluctant readers would probably find this book to be fun to read. Adrian Dingle really puts a new twist on the elements. One aspect in particular, that I really like about this book, is the appreciation I now have for the various elements, because of important parts they play in our universe. This is definitely a book that should embrace all home and classroom libraries.
