I'm a big fan of the CGP study guide series, & the KS 2 Science Study book is no exception. The children of the household have worked their way through it without complaint ("I think it's good" - genuine feedback) & the colourful, well-designed pages & humour are about as far from a dusty textbook as you can get.
We've also bought the KS 3 Science Revision Guide & associated work books & SATs practice papers. That's how good they are.

The book is split into three main sections; Life Processes & Living Things, Materials & Their Properties, & Physical Processes. Each of these sections is then split down into each individual topic, for example under the first section Life Processes & Living Things, you would find the stuff about life cycles.
At the end of each main section there is a page of summary questions to check that you have learned alll the stuff properly. This is so you can see your weaker areas & can go back & revise that bit again.
There is a good contents page, & a detailed index, which some revision guides don't have. This means that if there is somthing percific that you are looking for, you don't have to spend ages searching through the whole book.
There are some revision guides that have the infomation written out reallly boring & unimaginative with no pictures apart from the occasional diagram. This is an acception however, & alll the infomation is set out in a fun enjoyable manner, which makes revising just that little bit easier. There are also loads of wacky pictures, related to what ever topic you are revising.
If you are looking for a fun revision guide to help you through those terrible tests, then this is a must have & you are sure to get a good grade if you use this to it's full potential.
