Charles Darwin, George Washington Carver, and Jane Goodall were once
curious kids with pockets full of treasures!
When you find something strange and wonderful, do you put it in your
pocket? Meet nine scientists who, as kids, explored the great outdoors
and collected "treasures" seedpods, fossils, worms, and more. Observing,
sorting, and classifying their finds taught these kids scientific
skills--and sometimes led to groundbreaking discoveries. Author Heather
Montgomery has all the science flair of a new Bill Nye. Book includes
the Heather's tips for responsible collecting.
