Even if you think science isn’t really your thing, we are certain you are going to love That’s Life! Professor Robert Winston spoke to us about his amazing new book and here’s what he had to say…
How do you explain tricky scientific information to children?
The key is to keep it simple. Anything, no matter how complex, can be explained and understood by using the appropriate language.
Describe That’s Life in five words.
Intelligible, informative, exciting, well-illustrated.
Why do you think That’s Life will appeal to children who aren’t necessarily ‘into’ science?
It is fun and engaging. It’s not designed just for kids who love science. It will, I hope, generally appeal to everyone because it’s about living in the fascinating world around us and understanding it.
What words of wisdom would you pass on to any budding scientists out there?
Quiz alert!
Science isn’t as difficult as one might first think, all problems are rational and can be worked out by rational means.
