Even better, the Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments:

Just keep an eye on the kids while they're experimenting. It's a fun read, but it includes experiments like "how to cut glass tubes", "making chlorine in the home lab", "making sulfuric acid"...

Amazon on that book:

"Many of the experiments contained in the book are now considered highly dangerous for unsupervised children, and would not appear in a modern children's chemistry book. OCLC lists only 126 copies of this book in libraries worldwide. It was said that the experiments and information contained herein were too dangerous for the general public."

Wow
