Open Wide!


Jaw-dropping mouths of the animal world


-> LAUNCH: 5th September 2024. Hardback. 64 pages.

Children aged 7+ are especially aware of their own mouths as they lose their milk teeth. Open Wide! compares their teeth to those of their favourite animals (and some super weird ones, too).

Приключение в ЦЕРН


Предстои ви да посетите ЦЕРН – най-голямата лаборатория по физика на елементарните частици в света. Можете да изберете ролята на посетител – турист, учен или ученик, но във всички случаи посещението ви ще е необикновено – във всеки момент ще трябва да вземате решения и изборът ви ще определя хода на вашето приключение. Да! Правилно разбрахте – предстои ви приключение, пълно с изненади. За да го завършите успешно, ще е необходима съобразителност, но и малко късмет. Докато решавате загадките и играете игрите, ще научете много любопитни неща за елементарните частици, които изграждат всичко – Вселената, нашия свят и самите нас.

About the author

Letizia Diamante’s childhood was laden with gamebooks📚, action films🎬 and Japanese anime🗾. Nothing, however, could beat the amazement she felt at the age of 8 when she came close to a real T-rex skeleton🦴. Over the years, she has immersed herself in the world of science👩‍🔬, received a PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Cambridge (UK)🎓, and kept her enthusiasm for adventure and exploration🕵️‍♀️. Secretly, she still has a soft spot for paleo-creatures🦕.

She loves writing about the latest discoveries🤖, making videos about scientists📸, exploring science museums and taking part in science festivals. During her time at CERN, she had special access to the biggest particle accelerator on Earth🌍, and the experimental caverns 100 metres (328 feet) underground👇. She thought CERN was a wonderful setting for a gamebook that introduces the fascinating world of particle physics💥. She hopes this book will inspire young readers to be intellectually intrepid.

the author of Your Adventures at CERN and other science books for children, Letizia Diamante, is surprised to see a T-rex at a dinosaur museum in S. Korea and takes a photo in front of the Large Hadron Collider LHC, the biggest accelerator in the world
