Description: This book contains a variety of simple experiments that introduce middle grade readers to basic scientific principles related to color. Students will learn about primary colors and secondary colors, camouflage, chromatography, the chemistry of color, photosynthesis -- even how the retina in our eyes works to allow us to see color. Each double-page spread deals with one aspect of color and features "In Action", "Keep Thinking", and "Don't Stop There" panels. These point students to connections to be made throughout the book, as well as loads of ideas about how to vary experiments, try out new ones, and keep on making scientific discoveries.
