Build-a-Lab! Science Experiments series. Gardner cleverly expands his science fair experiment books by encouraging readers to build their own weather station and musical instruments. Each volume includes facts about sound or weather and a collection of basic experiments, some of which require readers to build their own equipment and some of which work with more readily available materials. Diagrams illustrate the projects' setups. Reading list, websites. Ind., The Horn Book Guide Fall 2008
