The original Australian HI-5 kids' TV show stars a quintet of excellent performers who mix entertainment with educational themes. On this 2005 Christmas album offer up 15 lively, holiday-themed songs, both old and new, that are sure to entertain young children and prompt fun-filled sing-alongs.
Interesting anecdotes and engaging tales make science fun, meaningful, and accessible. Separating sense from nonsense and fact from myth, these essays cover everything from the ups of helium to the downs of drain cleaners and provide answers to numerous mysteries, such as why bug juice is used to color ice cream and how spies used secret inks. Mercury in teeth, arsenic in water, lead in the environment, and aspartame in food are discussed. Mythbusters include the fact that Edison did not invent the lightbulb and that walking on hot coals does not require paranormal powers. The secret life of bagels is revealed, and airbags, beer, and soap yield their mysteries. These and many more surprising, educational, and entertaining commentaries show the relevance of science to everyday life.
This book is an outstanding addition to the Dr. Joe books. For scientists AND novices alike, this book will entertain you with well written and down to earth stories about one of the most mystifying and misunderstood fields of study in the world. Best of all, the information in this book is not unreachable...but it is based on items that we encounter in day to day life. An entertaining and stimulating read for the inner curiosity that we all have!
While obviously intended as a book for students (the editor, Benjamin A. Heydrick, of the "High School of Commerce, New York City," edited this book "for school use"), the majority of the stories still entertain a full century after their original publications.
