2022 Los Angeles Times Festival of Books presents Chemistry Rhymes: A Tour of the Periodic Table in Verse and Song
Did You Find The Elements of the Periodic Table Hard To Understand? Learn it in an Easier and More Fun Way.
This book presents some basic information about eighty-five different elements in the form of a poem or song, based on common nursery rhymes or songs. Each is accompanied by a colorful illustration. Instead of Little Miss Muffet, for example, you can read about Little Miss Hydrogen. Also, you can jive to the nursery rhyme, London Bridge Is Falling Down by including the element Iron. Or sing about lithium to the tune of Three Blind Mice. Or sing about helium to the tune of Mary Had a Little Lamb. Or find out why tantalum is on your iPhone to the tune of Frere-Jacques. This is the most enjoyable introduction to the periodic table you have ever seen.
Alice Baxter taught high school chemistry for 37 years. She earned a bachelor's degree in science from Stony Brook University in New York and a doctorate in the history of science from Yale University in New Haven. Alice has also written a children’s book about chemistry called Adam’s Atomic Adventures.
Illustrator Ken Fredette created the webcomic “Ken Frets”, drawing inspiration from his love of music, science, and food. Ken is a member of the Nutmeg Collective of crafters.
