Your son may not be ready for them yet, but for science books for kids, I really recommend the Magic School Bus series (your local library probably has some). The kids in the book are a class who take field trips with their teacher, Miss Frizzle, on a school bus that can go anywhere (including back in time) and change into anything. They shrink down to explore an anthill. They go inside the body of one of their classmates who's sick. They travel from planet to planet in the solar system. Things like that.
There are videos, too. We still own all the ones available on DVD (some episodes never made it to DVD).
