713630: Berlin Breakout, TimeFlyz, Volume 3 Berlin Breakout, TimeFlyz, Volume 3
By Ben Avery / Zonderkidz

They're chasing a time-traveling spider, trying to stop him from kidnapping more geniuses and scientists. After failing a few times, the TimeFlyz and Laurel (their human companion who can shrink down to their size as well as fly when at that size) wind up in Nazi Germany and find themselves with a double mission. Lise Meitner, a Jewish physicist working at Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Chemistry, is the spider Darchon's next target, but only if the Nazis don't get to her first! This series is packed with action and intrigue, and this issue is no exception.

By Answers In Genesis

Finding a biblically based science book isn't the easiest task in the world, but the God's Design series has certainly helped! Different forms of energy, nuclear, solar, chemical, mechanical, and thermal energy are covered, along with magnetism, light, sound waves and more. Designed for grades 3-8, graphs, photos, illustrations, biographical notes and fun facts take the tediousness out of textbook work; concepts are continually reinforced through chapter questions, experiments and unit quizzes. This is one book in a three part set which can be used in any order; each contains 35 lessons with one unit project to merge all the lessons together. A resource list, index, master list of all needed supplies, "challenge questions" for older students and full answer key are included. At the pace of 3 lessons a week, you can cover the series within a year. 150 partially reproducible pages, softcover.
