    Hi, Your last two books here are certainly books for teens. The first really isn't. I want you to choose something written specifically for young adults. A couple that might work for your unit are:
    The Elements: A Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe
    Napoleon's Buttons: How 17 Molecules Changed History
