Synopsis

A funny take on core science topics with a little help from animals ...

Written by humour and science expert Paul Mason and hilariously illustrated throughout by Pipi Sposito this series combines mischievous animal antics with essential science learning.

In this book, find out all motion. See what happens when an elephant tries to become an expert skateboarder! Discover how weight affects acceleration, the role of friction when riding a skateboard, plus how to start and how to stop! There are also fun elephant facts included throughout, too.

The friendly semi comic strip design makes the text highly accessible, perfect for readers age 7+ and those studying science at Key Stage 2.
