Introduction The Chemy Called Al is a science fiction book written by Wendy Isdell. Wendy is an American author and artist. She is best known for her young adult works which put math and science into fiction. Her most popular novel was published in 1993. The Chemy Called Al is a book about a girl named Julie and how she finds herself on an adventure to try and stop a powerful-hungry horse from taking over. She later found herself walking down a path and eventually having to fight the wolframs to save her friends. Along the path they were blocked by a big canyon but he friends helped her get past it.

She began to think about what an x-ray and a light bulb had in common. She jerked up and grabbed her chemistry book and flipped to the index, searching for x-ray machines. The page had a diagram showed an “electron emitter” and a “tungsten target”. In excitement and fear, she quickly turned back to the section on “Terms of Light and the Elements”. Light bulbs. Tungsten was a periodic –A supernatural equine representative of the element tungsten who had been rebuilding when she had previously been to the land of mathematics. His servants, the wolframs, had attacked her and her companions. Now the items in her world that used tungsten were not working which could not be good because only tungsten could do such a thing or so that is what Julie …show more content…
After a while Julie got back on Al but the chill wind still took its still. She found herself beginning to get cold as they were following up a path. Soon she lost interest in her surroundings; however, a signpost finally caught her eye. It was made of bronze or some other yellow metal that had a great downward- pointing triangle symbol. Stretching horizontally across the triangles middle was what looked like a capital “I”. they soon figured out that the”I” stood for Earth. The path suddenly twisted and began developing between two high cliffs. They proceeded before but halfway through this canyon, a rockslide blocked their progress. The roadblock brought a complete end to the path comprised of broken rocks and gravel which stretched half way up the ravine from wall to wall. They began to backtrack out of the canyon and to Julies surprise, Aurum and Chromium took off across the landscape to the right side of the path. The chemy led her and Al down the gravel bed and to the left.
Conclusion The Chemy Called Al was not one of the best books I have read, I just did not find a connection. It related to school when it started talking about all the things on the periodic table and how it matched each horses name to something on the periodic table. I have learned a lot this year about science and chemistry and how
