Follow an ever-inquisitive troupe of mammoths as they develop core science skills in this workbook by award-winning author and illustrator David Macaulay.

With mammoths acting as your guides, this interactive science workbook is a fun and light-hearted way for kids ages 7-11 to practice science skills. It’s the perfect hands-on companion to Mammoth Science, the unconventional guide to the science world.

Throughout the workbook, the mammoths will first explain a science concept and then reinforce it with practice questions and fun activities. Master the basics, including states of matter, materials, elements, chemical reactions, cells, body systems, energy, forces, climate, our solar system, the rock cycle, and more.

This practical science workbook includes:
  • Experiments, activities, quizzes, and more - all designed to reinforce concepts and ideas.
  • Practical lessons on six key areas of science: matter, life, energy, forces, earth, and space.
  • An action-packed alternative to dry, unappealing science textbooks.
  • Curious and funny mammoths that’ll engage and entertain budding scientists and reluctant learners alike.

Do you struggle to engage with science at school? Would you like to build your confidence in science both at home and in the classroom? Or are you a science whiz who wants to learn more?

Developed in conjunction with a science teacher, the Mammoth Science Workbook covers all the key areas of the curriculum for kids ages 7–11 across biology, chemistry, physics, and astronomy, and cements your learning with easy-to-follow instructions and clear examples.
