Publisher's Synopsis
Learn all about energy with Mo the Monster and his friends in this fun first science book for children aged 5+.
Mo and his cousin Rory are going on a cookery course today! They are going to learn about where the gas that cooks their eggs comes from, what heat does to butter, about the electricity that powers the toaster and much more. But can Mo stay out of trouble while he's having so much fun? Don't count on it!
If a monster can understand science, anyone can! Join Mo the Monster as he discovers the basic principles of science. Along the way, Mo is kept focused (monsters are notoriously easily distracted) with the help of simple, clearly presented information, plenty of questions to answer and science puzzles.
The funny, colourful illustrations offer lots of scope for humour and interest to keep children engaged while they learn. Aimed at readers aged 5+.
