DESCRIPTION

Shining a Light on the Unknown Trailblazers of the Scientific World

Uncover the unnamed heroes who contributed to some of our world’s most important science.

Explore the hidden heroes that created the miraculous things we find all around us in this science book for children aged 7-9.

Do you ever find yourself feeling curious about who created the science behind some of our most impressive structures? Or wonder who it was that invented the equipment you find in your classroom? Well, wonder no more. This groundbreaking book covers all the lost contributors to the world’s most important scientific discoveries.

This science book for children offers:

  • Content produced by an exciting partnership with The Royal Institution, world leaders in science.
  • An exciting introduction to lesser-known scientific figures such as Maria Merian, Gregor Mendel and Percy Julian.
  • Inspirational stories from pioneering scientists who faced adversity, to unsung innovators who paved the way for modern advancements.


For curious children who have always wanted to know who it was that created coding, or how on earth the Egyptian Pyramids were built so long ago and yet still look brand new, The Royal Institution; the home of science, has all the answers.
