Part of the "Everyday Science" series that introduces science and technology to younger readers through familiar and popular settings such as the street, home, farm and kitchen.

Hands-on activities are included in the text for children to widen their understanding. This book examines the many aspects of the street where science and technology are at work - the focus being on how energy is used by people, vehicles, lights and how things move. This series is designed to support the National Curriculum requirements in science and technology.
