Ladybird series 621
Junior Science
4 titles published between 1940 and 1980
This four-title popular series, written by F.E.Newing .& R. Bowood and illustrated by Harry Wingfield, introduced simple scientific experiments to young children. Step by step the young reader learns the fundamental principles in a most enjoyable and practical manner – these four books were a perfect introduction to science, and to the scientific way of thinking.

All four titles in this series were originally published in dust-wrappers – because of their popularity there were numerous reprints of all four titles, which remained popular throughout the 1970s.
