“For the child who wants the proper word for everything, and a picture to go with it. Knowing the grown-up terms makes a young scientist feel taken seriously.”
From beeswax to a tilting Earth, science words made clear.
First Illustrated Science Dictionary is a picture-packed reference book that explains over 350 key science words and ideas.
It begins with what science is, then moves through living things, materials, forces, light, sound and electricity, space and scientific investigations. Words come with short, clear definitions, bright pictures and everyday examples. Children can look up one word when a question pops up, or read a whole topic in order.
What they'll discover
- How sound travels through air, through water and along a string-and-pot telephone.
- How bees build the cells of their nests from wax, and how glass is made by heating sand.
- Why seasons change: the Earth is tilted, so each part leans towards or away from the Sun.
Illustrated by Candice Whatmore · English
