The zippy, zany front cover is a tantalising taster of what is to come. Take your seats for a rip-roaring ride through a myriad of meaningful, mind-boggling and informative innovations and inventions.
The facts are delivered in super simple, bite-sized pieces using alliteration, rhyming and puns that will sound great, grab the attention and prompt discussion when read aloud: “Don’t forget to take a trunk”. Get it?
The pages pop with colour. The cartoon-style characters and comic strip illustrations are just perfect for the target age group with lots of fun little things to seek out and question lurking in the periphery – can you spot the cow hiding in the milk float?
As a ‘senior’ reader I found the Wind Turbine chapter really interesting and the Diebedo Francis Kene chapter moving and inspirational. From a giant, golden sculpture of poo to eco-friendly mud bricks, from shopping malls to crash test dummies – there’s a little bit of something to appeal to readers of all ages.
