Description

Eggs are awesome packages - a little mystery of life all wrapped up in a durable, often beautifully coloured wrapping. They also make for some fairly fabulous science for young kids. Think of the size difference between the eggs of an ostrich and a hummingbird...think of a chick having to use a special tooth to break out into the world...think of what it would be like if humans were born in eggs! Wow! In zigzag fashion, these books introduce real science, real science vocabulary, and use the first principle of the scientific method, which is ask, answer, and ask again.

Author Biography

The National Geographic Kid is curious about the world around them, empowered in the face of challenges and responsible for others and the natural world. Combining these principles with the international educational heritage of Collins, this partnership is a natural fit for books that are funny, weird, exploratory, educational and loved by children.
