Corpse Talk: Ground-Breaking Scientists by Adam Murphy
The ultimate history lesson as Adam and Lisa Murphy dig up and interview the most incredible and dead brilliant scientists from history, and find out about their extraordinary lives.
Funny and informative. . there's a lot of humour here, there's plenty of information and context, too - both of which are key first steps towards a child's historical understanding . . . It has the makings of a huge success for children, and for parents, too * Telegraph ***** *
I love Corpse Talk. Ingenious and funny and unfailing fascinating. Brilliant stuff. * Philip Pullman *
