You have been asked by your teacher to give a talk on a reference book that is useful for secondary students. You have decided to give a talk about a science book.
 
Good morning, teachers and my fellow students. I have been asked to speak about a new reference book that has been very useful to me in my studies. I trust it would be to you too, which is why I am here today. The book is titled Science Made Simple written by Sharifah Shazana. It is published by Bunga Publications. The author is a famous scientist-turned-teacher who has been a scientist for 10 years before she started teaching in schools. Ever since then, she has taught in secondary schools for 15 years. Her experience as a scientist has enabled her to know the intricate details of science and how to make it simple for learners, coupled with her years of teaching experience.

Let's move on to talk about why I find the book useful for myself and for secondary students. First of all, the book caught me right from the start through its beautiful cover design. While we are often told not to judge a book by its cover, one could not help but be drawn to this book as the cover design was very well done.

That aside, I must say I was very delighted to find that the contents of the book is even better than what the cover design portrayed. The author provides very clear explanations for all the concepts and theories given. Theories which are usually viewed as boring and difficult to understand never seemed simpler. The author has the gift of making complex truths simple to understand for the learner. The clear explanations complemented well with the attractive presentation of diagrams and illustrations which made science not only simple but loads of fun!

At the end of every chapter, there is a variety of exercises to test the concepts and theories the students have learned. These exercises are handy and great for reinforcement of the knowledge the students have acquired. The exercises are also followed by practice question papers which are written in SPM-format to familiarise students with SPM questions. Sample answers are also given as a guide for the students to write their answers in the best format and style.

Not only that, the book also comes with useful tips that are spread out sporadically throughout the whole book. These tips will help students to identify common errors made in examination and how they can better tackle a question.

The book was also top on the list of bestsellers in our local bookstores. I believe that this is good enough to consider buying the book!

All in all, the book really speaks for itself. It is an excellent book you would not want to miss out on. I would highly recommend the book to all of you. You can get the book at our school bookstore at just RM9.80 per copy. I am sure you would enjoy the book as I did.

Thank you.
