Part of Heinemann's high-interest/low-reading level Fusion series, this book explores the discovery of the smallpox vaccine. Along the way it explains the steps of the scientific method.
I was very happy to learn that this book is recommended on the National Science Teachers Association website. The reviewer calls it "a great illustration of science in action" and writes that the book "would be wonderful to use to teach younger students."
