From the interior of an atom to the solar system and beyond, the mammoths seek to understand the science! These intrepid science demonstrators will go to incredible lengths to educate and entertain. They wrestle with magnets to understand their powerful force, make mammoth models of different materials explore what gives them mass, and step into a X-ray machine to reveal the bones beneath their woolly exterior. Observing and recording the mammoth's behaviour is bestselling illustrator David Macaulay, whose How Machines Work won the Royal Society Young People's Book Prize in 2016. Renowned for his ability to explain complex ideas with simple genius, Macaulay captures the oddball humour of his subject matter, making Macaulay's Mammoth Science the perfect introduction to scientific principles for the young and the young-at-heart. 650 0 $a Science $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Mammoths $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Elephant shrews $v Juvenile literature. 700 1 $a Challoner, Jack, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Mills, Andrea, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Mills, Georgia $c (Writer), $e contributor. 941 $a 18 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240402012618.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012015810.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909062625.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20220806013652.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20220430010153.0 952 $l DEPA173 $d 20220414162255.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20220104012334.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722063459.0 952 $l YMPD532 $d 20210601010814.0 952 $l CXPC586 $d 20210527010207.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20210130011255.0 952 $l ESPD725 $d 20210107011239.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20201103010958.0 952 $l WWPC305 $d 20201031010942.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20201010010356.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20200929010108.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20200912010922.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200805014241.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B8F6B136D6E611EAA1A8133A97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
