Can anyone suggest any science books for children or teaching critical thinking to children books? I know of Teach Your Child Science by Michael Shermer and Nibbling on Einstein's Brain by Diane Swanson. Any other suggestions?

Hello, Tressa

I just joined the forum recently and I had the exact same question. Before I had a chance to ask it, I stumbled across this thread:

(I haven't posted a link before, so I hope this works. Let me know if it does not. It is under "books for skepkids".)

My wife and I are raising our 21 month old, so I have not (yet) purchased any of these, but it is always good to plan ahead. Hopfully, you can follow the thread to see other suggestions and comments by those in the forum.

Thanks! I did a search before I posted but I must have not done a good one because nothing came up. I will definitely see if the local library has any of these titles (I like to check out kids books before I purchase them if possible). Thanks again!
