Basher Science: Planet Earth is a compelling guide to a community of characters who keep the world in motion. Learn just how hot it is at the Earth's core and how volcanoes are created, before discovering the difference between peninsulas and plateaus, and exactly who, or what, is the mysterious El Niño.

Key concepts such as fossil fuels and climate change are broken down and illustrated in Basher's signature approachable style - making it easy for kids to understand these topical subjects. Kids can also learn about the unique features of different environments around the world, from the frozen Arctic to the African savannah.

Basher's unique illustrations combine with chatty, first-person text by expert author Daniel Gilpin to hook even the most reluctant readers and help them to understand the science behind the headlines.
