i explore The Extraordinary Truth About Rocks I couldn't get a price for this book, so I assume it's out of print. It's still a cool book through. There are beautiful pictures of rocks that you can see through the included 3D glasses.
How Lunchbox Jones Saved Me from Robots, Traitors, and Missy the Cruel by
Summary: Luke Abbott's school is the losing-est school in the history of losing. And that's just fine for him. He'd rather be at home playing video games and avoiding his older brother Rob and the Greatest Betrayal of All Time.
But now he's being forced to join the robotics team, where he'll meet a colorful cast of characters, including: Mikayla, the girl who does everything with her toes; Jacob and Jacob, who aren't twins but might as well be; the sunflower seed-obsessed Stuart; and Missy the Cruel, Luke's innocent-looking bully since they were six-years-old. But it's an unlikely connection with a mysterious boy known only as “Lunchbox Jones” that will change Luke's life. Turns out, Luke and Lunchbox Jones have a lot more in common than just robots . . . .
The Boy Who Invented TV. The Story of Philo Farnsworth by Kathleen Krull $13.88 This is a picture book, which I think is a bit young for him, but it does look like an interesting story.
Summary: Plowing a potato field in 1920, a 14-year-old farm boy from Idaho saw in the parallel rows of overturned earth a way to “make pictures fly through the air.” This boy was not a magician; he was a scientific genius and just eight years later he made his brainstorm in the potato field a reality by transmitting the world’s first television image. This fascinating picture-book biography of Philo Farnsworth covers his early interest in machines and electricity, leading up to how he put it all together in one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century. The author’s afterword discusses the lawsuit Farnsworth waged and won against RCA when his high school science teacher testified that Philo’s invention of television was years before RCA’s.
What Could Go Wrong by Willo Davis Roberts $7.55 My son isn't super excited about this one, but I think that's only because the cover hasn't captured his attention yet. This looks like a fun book to read.
Summary: Gracie and her cousins find themselves in the midst of a summer vacation gone awry in this thrilling adventure from three-time Edgar Award–winning author Willo Davis Roberts.
Everyone thinks Charlie is nothing but trouble, since bad things tend to happen whenever he’s around. But Gracie knows better.
Now both kids have the chance to fly with their other cousin Eddie from Seattle to San Francisco without any adults. Gracie’s father isn’t sure the trip is a great idea, but Gracie’s not worried. What could go wrong?
My son received two pencils, perfect for the never-ending homework.
Our August box was super late because there was a problem with the Post Office and the box was sent back. This was a fun bonus toy included for the trouble.
Final Thought: This box had a total value of over $59.79. Overall this was another good box. The science book was my son's favorite book in the box. If you want to subscribe, use the coupon LEARN to save 10% on your subscription.
