I suggest browsing the science books in the adult section of your local public library. I was doing so yesterday and noticed that many of the science books are for the lay reader and do not assume much of a math or science background, so they may be suitable for students in elementary or middle school. They are not college-level science textbooks.

The adult math section had several Life of Fred math books that we had not bought yet. My son was excited when he saw them.
