Rocks & Minerals: A Gem of a Book
Simon Basher is back with another zany primer to science! Following his 3 successful titles on the basics of chemistry, physics, and biology, BASHER SCIENCE: ROCKS AND MINERALS is an in-depth look at the ground beneath our feet. Like his other titles, Basher presents these topics through charming and adorable illustrations and pairs them with basic information told from a first person perspective. He develops a community of characters based on the things that form the foundations of our planet: rocks, gems, crystals, fossils and more. And what's more, he makes it understandable, interesting, and cute. It's not what you expect out of a science primer.

What homeschoolers say about Basher Science
Homeschoolers appreciate Basher Science for its creative, visually appealing approach that personifies scientific concepts, making complex topics more accessible and memorable for younger students. The colorful illustrations and conversational tone are praised for engaging reluctant learners and sparking interest in science. However, some parents note that the books serve best as supplements rather than comprehensive curricula, as they lack depth and structured lesson plans. The materials are generally considered affordable and user-friendly, though those seeking rigorous, detailed science instruction may need additional resources.
