Eric and Adam are two normal American boys-except they are growing up throughout Africa.

Even though their mother tries to keep their enthusiasm in check, the boys seek adventure in every single country they live. With a diplomat for a father, there's always somewhere new to go.

In a series of vignettes shared by their mother, author Linda Pierce Plues, the boys display a knack for making friends. The first one they meet in Kinshasa is a baby pigmy chimp, which they don't hesitate bringing home. They also run into other animals, including a chameleon that bites and holds onto Eric's nose. But nothing surprises their mother more than a giant rat that Adam hunts down in Abidjan.

The boys' exploits go beyond the imaginable, including a harrowing, one-hundred-mile ride from the Kano airport to their new home in Kaduna, Nigeria. Most families would have turned right around and headed back to the United States, but the Plues family press on until they must say goodbye to their beloved African friends.

Kids love science experiments Scientist of the Day describes a program where each student has an opportunity to choose, practice, and present an experiment to his classmates. The book provides clear instructions for the teacher or parent and reproducible record-keeping forms. There are 46 different experiments written so that young scientists will know exactly what to do and when to pause to ask questions. This encourages his or her classmates to make predictions, hypothesize, and discuss what they observe. They all then record their observations by drawing on special forms. At the bottom of each experiment there is a brief explanation of the science behind it that is clear and correct. Students thoroughly enjoy watching and discussing these demonstrations, and some may be inspired to continue their studies to become "not just for a day" scientists
