Description

Dive into the science of water with lots of flaps to lift and experiments to do.

All living things need water to survive. But what actually is water, and why is it so special? Lift the flaps to discover the surprising science of water, then try some simple experiments to see it in action for yourself.

You'll find out how water shapeshifts, where it goes after it falls as rain, how it shapes landscapes, why too much or too little water can wreak havoc... and how water can do magic tricks!

About the Author

Originally from Zimbabwe, Micaela has always enjoyed learning about different cultures and exploring the great outdoors. When she's not rafting the rapids of the Zambezi river or camping among the African wildlife, she is writing books on all sorts of delightful subjects, from science's greatest unknowns to the wildflowers of the world.
