Follow Maddie Moate as she takes a look inside everyday objects and machines – from fridges to fire engines! Starting in the home, you'll find out how microwaves heat your food and how smart speakers react to voice commands. Then take a trip to the supermarket and discover how the checkout works, before heading to the playground and learning why a roundabout makes you feel dizzy!

And there are puzzles to solve too, including a spot the difference, a maze and a word ladder. The marvelous machines featured in this book range from objects in the home (including a smart speaker, a microwave, a dishwasher, a fridge and a toilet!) to machines in the workplace (a dentist's chair, an X-ray machine, a digger and a fire hose), as well as in the playground, at the shops, on holiday and beyond.Written and researched by Maddie Moate, the star of CBeebies Do You Know , this book is packed with awesome facts and key STEM concepts - perfect for nurturing curious minds aged 6 and above.
