All too often, the explanations remain shrouded in mystery-or behind a haze of technical language. For kids of all ages-or those of us who should have raised our hands in science class but didn't-Larry Scheckel comes to the rescue. An award-winning science teacher and longtime columnist for his local newspaper, Scheckel is a master explainer with a trove of knowledge. Just ask the students and devoted readers who've spent years trying to stump him!
