There are color screenshots from series, and the occasional illustrations. The graphics and images seem to be specially designed to appear 3D {especially page 60}, with olden style red-blue 3D glasses. It has explanations with images of how to do the various at home experiments, and the occasional quick facts scattered about the book. There are short profile/Biographies of scientists.

The two penguins Don and Herb {named after Donald Herbert, AKA "Mr. Wizard"} appear at the beginning of each chaThis is one of seven official books based on the television series "Beakman's World".
