Basher Science: Engineering: Machines and Buildings [Paperback] Jackson, Tom and Basher, Simon

Ever wondered how bridges stay up or why machines work the way they do? This brilliantly illustrated gem from the Basher Science series transforms engineering concepts into quirky, memorable characters that actually make sense. Tom Jackson breaks down everything from levers and pulleys to skyscrapers and dams, while Simon Basher's distinctive artwork turns abstract principles into friendly faces you'll remember long after reading. It's clever, colourful, and genuinely fun – the kind of book that makes STEM subjects feel accessible rather than intimidating. Perfect for curious kids aged 8-12, reluctant readers who need visual hooks, or any young builder-in-training.
