The disappearing spoon, and other true tales of rivalry, adventure, and the history of the world from the periodic table of the elements

Kean, Sam (author.). Dingle, Adrian, (adapter.). Kennedy, Kelsey, (adapter.).

Summary: "The periodic table is a crowning scientific achievement, but it's also a treasure trove of adventure, greed, betrayal, and obsession. The fascinating tales in The Disappearing Spoon follow elements on the table as they play out their parts in human history, finance, mythology, conflict, the arts, medicine, and the lives of the (frequently) mad scientists who discovered them. Adapted for a middle grade audience, the young readers edition of The Disappearing Spoon offers the material in a simple, easy-to-follow format, with approximately 20 line drawings and sidebars throughout. Students, teachers, and burgeoning science buffs will love learning about the history behind the chemistry." --Amazon.com.
