Series: Spectacular Science

The Spectacular Science of Inventions is guaranteed to answer all those tricky science questions that children ask about machines, technology and gadgets - and that parents often struggle to answer - such as:

- Who built the first robots? - How is a text message sent from one smartphone to another? - Why will the James Webb telescope revolutionize our knowledge of the Universe?

The bright, busy artworks will encourage science-hungry children to pore over every detail and truly get to grips with the science that underpins everything around us. Information is delivered on multiple levels, allowing readers to dip in and out at speed, or take a deep dive into their favourite subjects.
