About the Book

Book Synopsis

The Spectacular Science of Buildings is guaranteed to answer all those tricky questions that children ask about buildings, bridges, and other structures - and that parents often struggle to answer.

Find out: How did the Egyptians build the Great Pyramid of Giza? How can skyscrapers keep getting taller? How do guests stay warm in an ice hotel? And lots, lots more!

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.
