 Excellent illustrations, very well done book. May 6, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm very excited about this book; enjoyed it thoroughly with my kids. Each page of the book has a 2-page, full-bleed illustration done in the style of oil-on-canvas. The contents gave a clear, concise view of who Pasteur is, what microbes are, and why Pasteur's contributions are significant.
The contents are a more comprehensive insight into Pasteur's work than you'd find in an encyclopedia, but less than you'd find in a biography or science journal. In other words, just right for elementary school kids.
I will be looking for more books in the Science Stories Series. They did a beautiful job with this book, and best of all, it left my kids hungry for more!
A must when teaching kids about bacteria... June 28, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Pasteur's Fight Against Microbes is a good way to introduce the subject of bacteria to children. Even when the book explains many facts meant for elementary kids, I think it can be read to kids as young as four. My 4y/o loved the story and the illustrations.
 Nice Book June 30, 2006

I especailly like the illustrations. Content is good too. I wish the author had included something of Pasteur's Christian faith, as is was a great factor in his confident and untiring search for answers to the mysteries puzzling him.

My son loved this book. I read it to him, then found him reading it to himself the next day. He found it very exciting. Great for kids interested in science. Gives science a human face.
