Zoey and Sassafras #6: Unicorns and Germs (First Book Special Edition)

In the sixth book of this series, an earthquake shakes Zoey's house. Or maybe it's a unicorn-quake? An enormous new friend arrives in a lot of pain and it's getting worse every day. Zoey must work with her mom and Sassafras to find a cure—and quickly!

With magical animals, science, mystery, and adventure—the brand new series, Zoey and Sassafras, has something for everyone! Easy-to-read language and illustrations on nearly every page make this series perfect for a wide range of ages.

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 or 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.
