These are very big questions that need exploring and the sooner we start answering them, the better. Content includes: What is technology? How was technology first used? What came next? Who invents technology? What do engineers do? What powers technology? What are technology’s greatest 21st century achievements? What do computers do? What can robots do? How can you work with technology? What is the future of technology? This delightful series builds foundations for life-long learning by explaining big ideas to little people.

Stunning illustrations support the non-fiction narrative ensuring that our picture book approach feels fresh and different and allows children to recognise themselves in the book.
