Sorry to be so blunt on a Sunday morning, but this looks like the type of book Nancy's student wanted to avoid.

It has 40 experiments for elementary children interested in learning about people. It builds on the curiosity young peolpe have about others. It can be found in popular book stores, science stores, etc. The ISBN is 0-915793-83-0. A disclaimer: Jonni is a friend and my students' work is included in the book, okay and I wrote the Forword...

She wants to know if there is a book available that explains psychology as a science to elementary school students (so not one of those APA kiddie books for children with psychological or psychosocial issues, but an introduction to the science). Does such a thing exist? Hope all the tipsters are having an excellent summer.
