Children are inquisitive by nature. They are forever curious about the world around them and want to know more about it. Though they have textbooks for their reference, still they can never quench their thirst for knowledge completely. Encyclopedias are specifically designed to bridge this gap. They help to nurture the hidden Albert Einstein or Marie Curie in the children. Children's Science Encyclopedia in 17 volumes is one such unparalleled effort in this direction. All the essential subject areas, from Universe and Environment, Plants and Animals, to Human Body, are covered in this comprehensive encyclopedia. Readable entries integrated with informative illustrations make the text lively and interesting, thus enabling better understanding of the topics covered. Matchless in approach and presentation, Children's Science Encyclopedia is certain to find appreciation in the eyes of students and also general readers, for being a one-stop comprehensive guide of the various aspects of Science. A must buy for school libraries and also individual households! CONTENTS 1. Universe 1. Space 2. Stars 3. Pulsars, Black Holes and Quasars 4. Galaxies 5. The Sun 6. The Solar System 7. Mercury 8.
