There is a lot to like in this charming, informative book that teaches science via these cute and colorful dragons.
The facts about the elements on the periodic table covered in this book are presented in short bits of wordage that’s easily understood, with an accompanying illustration that helps firm up that understanding. Sometimes a picture truly is worth a thousand words. 😊
Students can open this book to find all kinds of fascinating information like this about carbon: It’s considered the universe’s weirdest molecule because of their structure that resembles a soccer ball. What a perfect image, especially for people well acquainted with that sport. “And because carbon forms more compounds than any other element, it is sometimes called the ‘King of the elements.’”
Who wouldn’t want to be king?
Each dragon has a magical power based on the element they represent. Some can start fires and others, like Jazzy Jalin can paint pictures with her tail that is tipped in Neon.
Combining learning with dragons and magic is a perfect way to teach.
As with the previous offering to learn about scientific elements presented by the magical unicorns, I enjoyed reading this book a lot. What a perfect way to learn some science without having to read a heavy textbook. The hard sciences were never my thing when I was in high school or college – social sciences were of much more interest – but if I’d had a book like this, I might have been more receptive to the idea of learning about the periodic table.
This book is sure to appeal to kids today who may be as reluctant to dig into hard science as I was.
The illustrations are lovely and so perfect for the content of the narrative they’re paired with. This is truly a wonderful blending of science and art and a great way to teach young and old about these elements. Highly recommended for schools, as well as a resource to have at home.

Terrific review! And right? “If I’d had a book like this…” I love that the author has made chemistry and science more accessible. And memorable!
Making the science so easily accessible is the key to these books. Can’t wait to see what comes next and what magical creatures appear.
Ah…yes, Cole is the king so this little dragon wears a crown. My favorite thing about carbon is that it purifies both air and water. We are fortunate to have such an element in our world. Thanks so much for your wonderful review and for sharing space on your blog to let your readers know about Magical Elements of the Periodic Table Presented Alphabetically by the Elemental Dragons. I appreciate it! 🙂
You’re welcome, Sybrina. Your books are so clever and engaging. Happy to spread the word. And happy to be able to learn things. Always a student. 🙂
