Science Versus Ghost
1 pp · non-fiction

Sir William Crookes and his scientific colleagues spent two years conducting weekly examinations of a ghostly figure called Katie King, who appeared to manifest from a living girl named Florence Cook. Through careful measurement and observation, they documented Katie King's physical properties—her height, pulse, and heartbeat—finding her to weigh only a third as much as a person of similar size, yet seemingly alive and breathing. When Florence Cook died, Katie King's appearances ceased entirely, leaving the mystery unresolved.

The Story of the Microbe
5 pp · non-fiction

A nonfiction account traces humanity's gradual understanding of the microbe, from Antony van Leeuwenhoek's first glimpse of tiny creatures through his improved microscope in the 1670s to the groundbreaking experiments of Redi and Lazzaro Spallanzani that proved microbes require living parents and can be destroyed by heat. Through careful observation and clever testing, these early scientists pieced together the hidden world of microscopic life that causes disease, laying the foundation for modern medicine's arsenal against illness.
