Reviews

"CSI fans will enjoy these books' explanations, activities, and project suggestions . . ."

School Library Journal, July 2010

". . . one of the strengths of the book . . . is to pull different experiments together to show how they can be used in the field of forensics . . ."

TriState Young Adult Book Review Committee, May 2010

"This book offers the middle school student the opportunity to experience science by combining four major themes: forensics, the scientific method, experimentation, and science fair projects . . . All of the experiments in this book have detailed, easy to read instructions and use simple materials found in the home."
