My Stem Day: Science takes you through the day and explains how incredible science underpins everything you do..
Do you know why popsicles melt? Or how your lungs work? Or how you digest your lunch?
Science is one of the four branches of STEM. It is all about investigating the many mysteries of the natural world -even the mystery of you! It can be anything from looking for alien life in the Universe to working on a cure for cancer. Scientists carry out experiments to test their theories.
This book, and the entire MY STEM DAY series, is packed with amazing challenges and do-at-home experiments with easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions for the activities and bite-size text detailing scientific facts and stats. The series is endorsed by a leading STEM educational consultant
Science is everywhere!
From morning until night, our days are made easier by the work of scientists. Every day, scientists make exciting discoveries that will improve our lives and unlock the world's mysteries.
Scientists work with engineers and mathematicians to find answers to some of the world's challenges. Will we be able to protect our planet in the future by finding cleaner fuels and plastics that are easier to recycle? Con we find new ways to stay healthy and live for longer?
Think about what you've learned so far about science. Are there any other scientific questions that you'd like to investigate? Where would you start? What questions would your experiments answer? The sky's the limit!

About the Author
I write short books for short children and longer books for longer people. I've been writing fiction and non-fiction for young people, and non-fiction since the last millennium - luckily, the end of the last millennium and I'm not even nearly 1000 years old. I particularly enjoy reading and writing stories with a bit of a twist and, for older readers, an element of horror. I definitely have a Gothic streak. Writers I really admire include Minnie Gray, Oliver Jeffers, Shaun Tan, Edward Gorey, Tove Jansson, Marcus Sedgwick, Siobhan Dowd and Melvin Burgess.
I love being a writer because (a) it gives me the chance to be enthusiastic about things and share my enthusiasm with other people (b) I get paid for telling lies and (c) I don't have to do as I'm told, unlike people with a real job. I like to listen to music when I'm writing, and usually pick a few pieces of music that go with each book and listen to them again and again - most of them are opera.
Although I spend most of my time writing, I also spend some helping other people with their own writing - mostly young people, who are doing a degree at university. This is great fun as I get to read lots of stories by writers who are just starting.
I live in Cambridge, which is a very ancient city in the east of England with lots of ornate and pointy buildings. It's very flat in Cambridge, so it's easy to go everywhere by bicycle, but it's also rather wet. If I could live anywhere at all, it would probably be in Venice, which is also flat, ancient and full of pointy buildings. It's even wetter than Cambridge, and people go everywhere by boat.
