Hot and Cold - My World of Science

by Angela Royston   |  Ages 5-8
$8.90 Now $3.90 Save 56%
Hot and Cold - My World of Science
Hot and Cold - My World of Science

Understanding temperature's effects on life and matter.

If the phenomenon of temperature has ever piqued your curiosity, "Hot and Cold" unfolds its mysteries in a very approachable way. It doesn't just provide facts; it connects everyday experiences with the science of thermal energy. This book might just change how you perceive the simple act of melting ice or feeling the warmth of the sun.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
