Sail a toy ship across the ocean... Build an igloo... Ollie and Harry Ferguson did it-and you can too! Starting with a list of 500 "adventures", the Scottish brothers set out to live life to its fullest. They've photographed the sea floor, launched a plastic toy into space, mummified fish and tracked wild animals; they've gone magnet fishing and camping, sailed aboard a deep-sea diving vessel, caught lobsters, made a bathtub in the woods, crossed the ocean in a toy boat, gone on a meteorite hunt, made a megapult, raised chickens, built an outdoor shelter, sailed a kite boat, built a wildlife reserve, went on a mountain hike and have flown trained falcons. With striking colour photographs and featuring step-by-step directions for some of the boys' best adventures, this book provides guidance that will inspire families to marvellous adventures of their own.

This book will sort myth from fact to bring you the real science behind the search for alien lifeforms. Space expert Joalda Morancy will take readers on a tour of the Solar System (and beyond) on board new NASA missions searching for the most likely alien hiding places - from icy moons of Jupiter to the clouds of Venus. Along the way kids will find out about: * The robots sent to Mars to look for Martians * What really goes on at Area 51 * Ways to spot an advanced alien civilisation (hint - look for dim stars) Readers will explore a comet, race futuristic spaceships, and discuss what we would say to aliens when we finally meet them (after "hello!"). They may seem as fanciful as wizards and monsters, but this book will show that scientists not only believe that aliens exist - but that it's only a matter of time before we find them.
