A beautifully illustrated book for children aged 6+ that explores the incredible myths behind the biggest questions about our planet . . . and the sensational science we know today.

Do you ever look all around you, at our amazing planet Earth, and wonder how it all got there? Why does the Sun rise every day? How does the sky stay up? Where do rainbows come from? What are thunder and lightning? Since the beginning of time, people have been doing just that. Across different societies and throughout history people have had different beliefs about the world, nature and space. They have told stories about gods, goddesses and monsters, magic and mystery, to answer these BIG questions.

Now we have another way to answer the same questions – sensational science! Through investigation and experiments, scientists have found awesome answers that explain how everything on Earth works, and these can be just as magical as the myths themselves!

Mythical Science tells you all about the magical myths and the sensational science that together help us understand our wondrous world.

About the Authors

Rebecca Lewis-Oakes is a freelance writer, editor and consultant, author of Mythical Science and a number of other fun and engaging books for young readers. She lives in London.

Max Rambaldi draws mostly with my graphic tablet, but loves the freshness of watercolors and the mellowness of the acrylics, so always tries to incorporate them by using textured brushes. What she loves more than anything is scientific children books.
