Good to know
Which popular science book should I start with?
"The Hidden Life of Trees" by Peter Wohlleben reads like a story and needs no background. For the universe, Stephen Hawking's "A Brief History of Time" is the classic, though some chapters are harder than others. If the mind interests you, try Oliver Sacks's medical stories.
Are these books suitable for school students?
Many are, especially for high school students keen on physics or biology, but they don't replace a textbook or follow the curriculum. Younger readers can start with "George's Secret Key to the Universe" by Lucy and Stephen Hawking, where physics sits inside an adventure story.
