Stretchy, oozy . . . tasty slime? Sure! Slime can be made out of edible ingredients such as marshmallows, gummies, and chia seeds. Slime makers will love the easy-to-follow recipes in this volume. They'll learn that a chemical reaction turns some tasty foods into the gooey goodness called edible slime. Readers will also learn what questions to ask when using their five senses to make scientific observations about their slime and to record their findings in a table, creating a graphic organizer—just like real scientists do.

      Gr 2-5-Everyone's favorite non-Newtonian fluid is here to teach readers a little bit about observation, materials science, color theory, and adjectival parts of speech. Basic recipes-one to four in each book-result in slime with special properties. Readers can experiment, observe, and compare as they enjoy slime's unique sensory properties while learning to describe and document their experiences. Safety is highlighted throughout the books, with admonitions to keep most slime away from the face and dispose of it properly, although the repeated advice to "always make slime with a grown-up" is unlikely to be heeded at all times. Colorful images and "hand-printed" typefaces on a graph paper background simulate a student notebook. Photos of hands, mostly white, and a wide variety of slimes will have readers yearning to plunge their own fingers into some homemade squishy stuff. VERDICT These books mix skill building into slime along with glitter, food coloring, and foam beads.
