I was enthused by the title of this book and had high hopes for what I might find inside. I agree with Yannis’s argument that there are roles for narrative, storytelling, creativity, aesthetics and wonderment in science education. This is a well-meaning, generously-intentioned book that reviews all possible relevant research across many decades, presenting multiple theoretical frameworks and offering copious quotes. Each section discusses research and possibilities for classroom activities.
