Description

Discover the scientists who changed our world in My First Heroes: Scientists! Push, pull and slide the scenes to find out about Zhang Heng, Isaac Newton, Marie Curie and Rosalind Franklin, and be inspired by their incredible work. With scenes to explore, fun facts to learn and bright, bold illustration by Nila Aye, this is the perfect introduction for young children to these amazing scientists. Also available in the My First Heroes series: Artists.

Nila Aye graduated from Central St Martins with a sell-out show in 1995, and has been a firm favourite of the London illustration scene ever since. Nila is influenced by mid-century design and children's books from this era: she describes her work as "Retro modern with a cute twist, and a touch of humour". Nila has previously worked with British Airways, Paperchase and Templar. The My First Heroes titles are her first books for Campbell.

This showcase of great minds who've changed the world will inspire tots. Push, pull and slide features bring the stories to life * Baby Magazine * The 'My First Heroes' books are a great way to engage little ones in reading, by making learning about inspirational people interactive and fun. The slides to push and wheels to turn provided lots of interest and our testers liked that the stories highlighted diverse and interesting lives. The stories and facts encouraged lots of discussion and questions, which is a great way for children to build their knowledge and communication skills. The interactive features also really helped children to feel like they were participating in the story, which is great for developing empathy and learning about identity. -- Dr Amanda Gummer * Dr Gummer's Good Play Guide *
