Pirates - The Curse of the Mutating Hand (Theme - Liquid & Density) **Summer Reading Theme 2010**
In a time when pirates sailed the seven seas, there was one pirate who was feared the most. His name was Hendricks the Hand and he was cursed with a mutating hand. But this curse gave him power and now seeking to become unstoppable he must return to the place that cursed him…The Black Cave. In an attempt to protect the seas, the famous pirate James Dauer gathered a crew which included quartermaster Sam Sullivan and set sail for The Black Cave! Join us as we learn about the science of Liquid & Density by telling the tale of The Curse of the Mutating
Hand. By boiling water in a paper cup, crushing a can with only water,
creating a mutating hand, and exploding bottles through evaporation, see if
James Dauer can stop Hendricks before its too late!
