Translated from the French by Florence Constable Bicknell.
Using everyday objects found around the house or in the local store, this Book is set as a storyline in which an "Uncle Paul" teaches his two nephews the secrets behind building an artificial volcano; how to set metals on fire; the flammable properties of water; how to make a fire hotte.
A wondrous introduction to the world of chemistry, designed specifically for younger readers with the intention of arousing their interest in science.
