The speed of light

Chapman, Simon (Children's author)2025
Books
Prepare to have your mind blown as you explore the different ideas about light, gravity and space that make up the theory of relativity, from the mind of one of the most famous scientists in the world: Albert Einstein. Through real life examples of physics in action and imaginary 'thought experiments', learn how time can stretch, what it would look like if we travelled at light speed, how black holes work and more! Fun, conversational text breaks down complex ideas so they are accessible to young readers.
