12. At that age, I was prone to use the wonderful Magic School Bus books with my sons.

They both grew up to be very well educated men.

(At the age of 21, my youngest is in line to graduate early with high honors as an engineer.)

At that age, science should be fun, I think, and the Magic School Bus books were wonderful at bed time.

I have very happy memories of that time with them.
