About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts asking impossible questions about how a microwave works, why the stars twinkle, or how their cell phone sends a text message across the world. It is the perfect tool for a student who has outgrown simple picture books but still learns best through visual storytelling and clear, real-world connections. This National Geographic guide demystifies the invisible electromagnetic spectrum by linking complex physics to the technology and nature children interact with daily. Beyond just facts, the book fosters a sense of wonder about the universe and the potential for future discovery. It covers everything from historical breakthroughs to speculative science regarding life on other planets. This is an ideal choice for parents wanting to support a middle schooler's transition into more rigorous scientific thinking while maintaining their natural curiosity and imagination.
