Houghton Mifflin has published about thirty-seven (as of August 2013) amazing nonfiction books about a wide variety of scientists. Some of my family's favorites are : Eruption! Volcanoes and the Science of Saving Lives by Elizabeth Rusch and Extreme Scientists-Exploring Nature's Mysteries from Perilous Places by Donna M. Jackson (about a man who flies INTO the hurricane!!, an underwater cave explorer and a tree climber-sequoias).
Books are full of photographs with picture captions, diagrams, maps, and a glossary. Readers will pour over the photographs for hours.
Highly recommend the series.
