In this book an active approach is taken to find out about the properties and uses of metals. Children are encouraged to ask questions and formulate ideas which they then test out. It asks where does metal come from?; Which metals are magnetic?; Does metal, wood or plastic conduct heat the fastest? And it also looks at musical instruments, the recycling of metal and asks why metals are used to make various everyday objects?
