Extreme Science: Incredible Living Things Summary

Extreme Science: Incredible Living Things by Rob Colson

When the world of science is viewed at its extremes it is easier to study and understand and it is also much more awesome!

Inside INCREDIBLE LIVING THINGS find out how scientists classify living things, how living things cope with extremes, such as heat and cold and some truly impressive speedy creatures and deadly animals weapons. Uncover how senses help living things survive, the huge distances some animals migrate and which animals are the smartest, slowest, smallest or toughest.

This series looks at extreme qualities and experiences, and how things have evolved and adapted to reach their extreme state and how we can identify scientific information from this. Presented in a highly graphic and accessible way, Extreme Science will appeal to visual learners and reluctant readers. Aimed at children aged 9 and up.

EXTREME SCIENCE is a series of six book:

POWERFUL FORCES

AWESOME MATTER AND MATERIALS

SPECTACULAR LIGHT AND SOUND

PHENOMENAL PLANTS

MAGNIFICENT HABITATS

INCREDIBLE LIVING THINGS
