Elements of the Day

The amazing stories and fascinating facts behind the elements that make every moment of the day possible. Why is breakfast cereal magnetic? Could you turn wee into gold? How does sand help us see? The answers have one thing in common - ELEMENTS! Elements are the building blocks that make up EVERYTHING we see, touch and taste. You are surrounded by them from the moment you wake up to the second you drift off to sleep (no matter how long past your bedtime it is!). From cereal, cars and cake to toilet paper, pencils and torches, come and meet the extraordinary elements that make YOUR day! Beautifully illustrated by Hao Hao.
