Description

Author: Frances Durkin  |  Illustrator: The Boy Fitz Hammond

Fact-filled non-fiction that uncovers the who, where, why and how of historical scientific discoveries. From the explosion at the start of the universe to atomic energy and the impact of immunisation, discover the people and places behind 13 major science breakthroughs that changed the world. You’ll read about what motivated them, why they did what they did, when they did it … and with whom! There is a glossary at the back of the book plus a ‘take it further’ activity on each page. Discover the human side of STEM!

About the Author

Frances Durkin is a historian, writer and mum who grew up in a large, history-loving family. A regular contributor to Aquila magazine on all sorts of historical and STEM subjects for children and co-creator of the Histronauts, Frances runs workshops at museums and bookshops and has written for the Tate. Frances lives in Buckinghamshire, UK, with her young family. Born in York when fast trains were yellow and blue, The Boy Fitz Hammond now lives in Edinburgh. He has worked with various clients including Oxfam, Shelter, BBC, Honda, Microsoft and the Barclays Premier League. His illustrations have also been used by many editorial, educational and publishing clients across a diverse range of titles. A fan of the digital watch, The Boy Fitz Hammond was once interviewed by Keith Chegwin live on Saturday Superstore. The Boy Fitz Hammond has recently been shortlisted for the British Book Awards - Children's Non Fiction Book of the Year for his illustrations in on A Better Day: Your Positive Mental Health Handbook by Alex George.
