What kind of science does it take to solve a crime?

Forensics for Kids provides the complete history of forensic science, giving readers a comprehensive understanding of the crime-solving advancements that led to modern forensics. Author Melissa Ross reveals fascinating stories, famous cases, pioneers who led the way, and what forensics might look like in the future.

Twenty-one engaging activities offer readers hands-on experiences with modern forensic methods.
Kids will:

  • Collect and compare fingerprints
  • Use chromatography to investigate a writing sample
  • Match hair samples with volunteer "suspects"
  • Recreate a face with clay on a small plastic skull
  • Make a plaster cast of a shoeprint and compare it to a shoe print database
  • And much more!
Kids can become the next real-life Sherlock Holmes or Nancy Drew after exploring the science of forensics.
