Story
Jean-Henri Fabre (1823-1915) was a popular teacher, physicist, chemist and botanist, but is best known for his findings in the study of insects, and is considered by many to be the father of modern entomology. Much of his enduring popularity is due to his engaging manner of writing about the lives of insects in biographical form. In The Story Book of Science the wonders of plant and animal life are shared by an adult in conversations with three children.

Nice but not quite my style
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
If you're looking for global-village style stories and aren't particular, this is a good find. However, I'm not into magic and sorcery and didn't like that aspect in some of the stories. My kids did like it though!
