Easy-to-read language and illustrations on nearly every page make this series perfect for a wide range of ages. In the third book of this series, Zoey and Sassafras head to the stream only to make a terrible discovery. Things get even more urgent when they learn that the magical creatures living in the stream are in danger! Can Zoey and Sassafras solve the mystery of the stream and save the Merhorses? Each story in the Zoey and Sassafras series features a new magical animal with a problem that must be solved using science. There isn't a set formula for each book; Zoey sometimes needs to run experiments, while other times she needs to investigate a mystery, and yet other times she needs to do research. Zoey models how to keep a science journal through her handwritten entries in each story. Each story is complete with a glossary of the kid-friendly definitions for scientific terms used. The series highlights child-led inquiry science and the topics covered align with both Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards. Review: Can't wait for the next one - Wonderful story that captured my 7 year old son completely again. We are currently testing every patch of water we come a cross for pollution. Review: Very creative and engaging - The Zoey and Sassafras series has been by far the most engaging and enjoyable chapter books that we have read together so far. It features a clever, independent young girl of color, her brilliant mother, her adorable cat, and many fantastical tales that combine and cultivate a whimsical imagination and a deep love and wonder for science and all the many ways that it interweaves itself into our daily life. The books encourage exploration of the natural world around us, but they also spark imaginative play, and, of course, teach many wonderful lessons along the way. In each book, Zoey performs at least one experiment that is easily replicated at home, almost always with items you would already have around your kitchen. It’s such a fun way to bring another level of immersion and learning to these fantastic books. It has been really neat for my child to see Zoey’s experiments in action. As of writing this, we have just finished book 4 out of 6 currently published in the series. Asia Citro’s books are so well written and enjoyable that I find myself absolutely treasuring our reading time together on a whole new level whenever Zoey and Sassafras are on our reading menu. Not only have I eagerly bought the whole set—one book at a time as we finished them off—but I’ve found that my child is extra eager to dive into chapter books now. Oh—and the illustrations are ADORABLE. I can not praise these books highly enough, and I am so relieved and excited to see that she is working on a 7th book to be released later this year. ## Features - INNOVATION ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #34,410 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #223 in Children's Books on Cats #469 in Children's Books on Computers & Technology #1,472 in Children's Books on Reading & Writing | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 627 Reviews | ## Images ![Innovation Press Merhorses and Bubbles: Zoey and Sassafras #3 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Oh6PCt6AL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can't wait for the next one *by H***E on 19 December 2017* Wonderful story that captured my 7 year old son completely again.
