Bill Bryson wrote a shorter version of his book that is aimed at kids. I did not read it, but I read his other work and it is fantastic, and the amazon reviews are very positive.
[A Really Short History of Nearly Everything](http://www.amazon.com/Really-Short-History-Nearly Everything/dp/0385738102/ref=tmm_hrd_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1290524524&sr=1-1)
I would also recommend a simple children's encyclopedia like:
DK's First Encyclopedia
Scholastic Children's Encyclopedia
Although what I recommend is you get a nice little experiments book, and do experiments with him, that is simply the best and the most fun way to get a kid hooked on science. I suggest a chem kit, and you help him out and do experiments with him. Examples:
The Book of Totally Irresponsible Science
Theo Gray's Mad Science(WARNING:SERIOUSLY dangerous but really cool)
You can also look at this website and do experiments with him. I highly recommend this:
The Naked Scientists Kitchen Science
