I haven't personally used either of these, but Pandia Press, the publisher of History Odyssey has also put out a series called R.E.A.L. Science. I don't think there are many science books available, though. Here is a link:

Noeo uses the Usborne Science Encyclopedia a lot (at least in logic stage).

I find HO and Noeo similar. We used Noeo for 5th grade biology.

REAL Science tends to get good reviews.

NOEO is very similar, but somewhat less value added. There's little more than "read these pages, summarize, and define x word." There are not extra reading lists or suggestions for supplementation. However, the convenience of having all books and materials at hand can make all the difference in a household in which Science is too frequently put off.
