Description:

Blood, Bones and Body Bits
A bone-chilling book of bodies to make kids squeal! Peek inside to discover all the squishy secrets of your body – including the nasty bits nobody wanted to tell you! 

Frightening Light
Light! It’s blindingly obvious! It’s just sunshine and the light-bulb in your living room. Isn’t it? Um… no. Because the science of light is full of sizzling, squishy, horrid facts that you’re still in the dark about. Some of it’s light-hearted fun – and some of it will scare the living daylights out of you! 

Microscopic Monsters
When the first daring discoverers looked through a microscope, they discovered a world of life-forms unknown to science – the terribly teeny microscopic world. A place of violence and sudden death! A place of beastly swarming bacteria! A place of mini monsters!

Nasty Nature
Some creatures are small and cute and fluffy. Some are cold and slimy with gigantic venomous teeth. Which would you rather read about? Tip: if it’s the first lot, don’t read Nasty Nature – because all the animals in here are deadly and disgusting and very nasty indeed! Erk!

Sounds Dreadful
Find out all about shocking soundwaves, rumbling resonance and sonic booms. From sonic sound guns that leave people dashing to the loo to the nasty noises of the wildest wild animals, it all sounds dreadfully exciting!!

Space, Stars and Slimy Aliens
A space-hopping book of stunning science. Learn what the moon smells like! Discover which astronomers killed people! Find out why space makes your guts explode! Space, Stars and Slimy Aliens will catapult you over the moon!

The Fight for Flight
Humans aren’t designed to fly. That’s why the first people to try it came to a very sticky end! But after centuries of death-defying stunts, blood-curdling blunders and fearsome flops, people have finally taken to the skies! A book stuffed with hair-raising heights, dizzying drops, terror, tears, triumphs – and squishy bits. It’s fearsome fun! Just don’t forget your parachute!

The Terrible Truth About Time
Want some really horrible science? It’s about time! Go time-travelling with this icky book and discover all the terrible time facts you’ve been waiting ages to find out. What happens if you go too close to a black hole? How do flies tell the time? Why do the years zoom past faster as you get older? Check out your chances of a time-travel trip (but don’t forget your sick bag!) The Terrible Truth about Time will get your ticker racing!

Ugly Bugs
Ugly Bugs. You don’t have to go very far to find them. Pick up any stone, look into any corner, and a hideous creepy-crawly thing is bound to squirm out! Huge hairy spiders! Wriggly centipedes! Slimy slugs and snails! Most frail folk will scream and run away. But if you’re brave and intrepid enough to look closer, lift up the stone on the creepy-crawly world of insects, and get ready to say ‘ulp’ at all the nasty bits. It’s ugly bugs vs. horrible humans – but who wins?

Vicious Veg
Vegetables. They’re green. They’re gross. They’re grotty. They make you feel queasy. But do you know all there is to discover about vile vegetables and other types of vicious vegetation? Read on for some foul facts that’ll really make you sick! The whole vile truth about vicious, violent, villainous veg. It’s bloomin’ amazing – if you can stomach it!
