A magical journey of scientific discovery begins here!

Four friends, the Museum Kids, are off on an incredible adventure to discover the history of flight and space travel at the Air and Space Museum. A magical lift takes them to the studio of Leonardo da Vinci, to see the Wright Brothers make their first flight, to the International Space Station, and many more places. Fun, interactive, and with lots of facts to discover, this book is perfect for space fans and all curious kids.

Magical Museums: Adventures in Technology is a series of picture books that follows the adventures of four children who are exploring museums that have come to life. Together with their guide, the children learn as they explore each museum, but they also have an exciting adventure, escaping dangers, working together, and solving problems.

Each detailed scene explores a different time period or technological achievement and is packed with fascinating facts. When the adventure finally ends, the gang are keen to take their guide's quiz to test what they have learned.

About the Author

Ben Hubbard began his writing career at a what's-on newspaper in the 1990s, interviewing bands, actors and artists in his native Wellington, New Zealand. He later joined the fast-paced world of daily newspaper journalism before packing up shop and moving to England. Here, Ben tied a number of new strings to his bow: magazine editor, book editor, and finally, author. Today, Ben writes a mix of non-fiction for all ages - preschoolers through to adults. He has penned titles on an eclectic subject range: from space exploration, samurai warriors and medieval castles; to pop music, pets, tornadoes and rugby skills.
