I would use this book to my class to describe how the atomic bomb was first discovered and used. The illustrations are amazing and show just how an atomic bomb explodes. I think my students would get a kick out of learning about this.
pickThis is a nonfiction book. It also won a Newbery Honor award. It is about a Uranium atom, and how if you placed it next to radioactive materials, it split into two! A German chemist discovered this. This is the story of the atomic bomb. A very interesting story that many people probably don't know about. The author includes true facts about this discovery and chemist.
