Critic reviews

“Outstanding” – Armadillo Magazine

“This dynamic book explains the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy, as well as detailed insight into vehicles on the ground, in the air and on the water. Super!” – Vicki Broadbent (Honest Mum blogger, author, broadcaster and former teacher)

“It’s sensibly written and beautifully illustrated.” – The Telegraph

"Each [Little Experts book] is beautifully illustrated and aimed at children aged six to nine, but equally educational for any adults reading along too."The Big Issue
