Beakman & Jax's Microscope Book

"Following the success of the You Can books, the brother and sister duo of Beakman & Jax present a fabulous introduction to understanding how microscopes work--presented in Beakman & Jax's trademark easy-to-get explanations and broad sense of humor. A real hand-held microscope is included for the reader's own explorations." --Amazon.com

This book explains how a microscope works, has close up images of items, and an experiment that the reader can do. It comes with a microscope, and had a original price of "$14.95 ($20.50 Canada)" {Back cover}. There are two different versions of the book. First a "Spiral-bound", version that came on a cardboard backing, along with the microscope. And second a staple bound version of the book, this version has the "Dog Poop" images/pages removed, but it keeps the same page count by adding two further pages for notes at the end of the book. For the first 12 pages the books are identical, however from page 13 onward each version has a different image on its numbered page, because the staple version is missing the two pages, and the numbers have been shifted to reflect the actual page count. The staple bound version, had the microscope wrapped in bubble wrap, and were sealed in a plastic bag.
