Curiosity Chronicles
Battle the bad guys and save the world in this interactive science adventure for kids!
When you and your friends discover that the mysterious Novax corporation plans to use their new time machine to steal scientific discoveries of the past and use them for evil, you decide to race into the past to stop them. If you pick the right paths, you'll protect the future of science. But if you don't...there's no telling what could happen!
In this exciting and interactive adventure, readers will determine how their story unfolds, testing hypotheses by choosing the actions they will take. Proving their science knowledge will move them forward, while wrong choices will lead them to dead ends where they learn about more about each scientific concept before turning back to test a new hypothesis. In this engaging and interactive format, readers will learn the theory and even practice the applications of concepts like density, relative motion, acceleration, optics, kinetic and potential energy, and more.
