Description

Following the success of Little People, Big Dreams, the new Small Great Gestures series expands on those books to look at people who made their mark in one key area of life. Science looks at the inspiring lives and outstanding achievements of twelve scientists from the 17th century to the present day. Peppered with fascinating stories about key discoveries such as penicillin (Alexander Fleming) and DNA (Rosalind Franklin) and groundbreaking figures like Ada Lovelace and Stephen Hawking, this is a wonderful way to learn about major developments which changed the world. Fun and informative, Science (Small Great Gestures) provides children with a great introduction to the world of science.
