Nano: the spectacular science of the very (very) small by Dr. Jess Wade and Melissa Castrillon - OPTIONAL

Nano: the spectacular science of the very (very) small by Dr. Jess Wade, illustrated by Melissa Castrillon.
NON-FICTION PICTURE BOOK. Candlewick, 2021. $18. 9781536217667 

BUYING ADVISORY: EL - OPTIONAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW 

Wade takes us for a quick look at what nanoscience is and some ways is currently being used and a way it might be used in the future. 

I found a disconnect between the subject of the book, the amount of content, and the illustrations. If I have a teacher specifically teaching about nanoscience, I might invest, but otherwise, I find the disconnect and the jerk from subject to subject to be off-putting.
