This story takes place in Georgia, where young Jake stumbled upon his older brother blowing a bubble from his bubble gum. Jake was mesmerized by what he thought was a magic trick and wanted very much to learn how to blow a bubble from a piece of bubble gum. The story has a happy ending when Jake learned how to blow a bubble after he followed the instructions of his older brother.

Developed in close collaboration with eight middle schoolers and two high school science teachers, this book includes real bubble gum--and lots of experiments that a kid with some gum can do. Full color.

Gum. It’s been around for centuries—from the ancient Greeks to the American Indians, everyone’s chewed it. But the best kind of gum—bubble gum!—wasn’t invented until 1928, when an enterprising young accountant at Fleer Gum and Candy used his spare time to experiment with different recipes. Bubble-blowing kids everywhere will be delighted with Megan McCarthy’s entertaining pictures and engaging fun facts as they learn the history behind the pink perfection of Dubble Bubble.
