I absolutely love this handheld
microscope! The magnification is impressive, focusing easily with sharp,
detailed images. It’s so small and fun to take it along---you’ll want to place
everything under the lens and discover the structure! Whether it’s plant cells
on a leaf or animal cells on a flake of skin, this provides some educational
entertainment that is cheap and long lasting! ~Nancie
