|title=The Life of a Car
|summary=This is a cumulative tale in which one small event sets off a chain of other events which are repeated throughout the story. If your child loves books like ''This is the House That Jack Built'', this may prove a very useful addition to you home library, but this is a type of story telling which I have found some children really take to, and others do not.

|title=Discover the Savage World
|author=Simon Adams, Camilla de la Bedoyere, Ian Graham, Steve Parker, Phil Steele, Clint Twist and Amanda Askew
|rating=5
|genre=Children's Non-Fiction
|summary=The range of subjects covered in ''Discover the Savage World'' is astonishing. The first three chapters are science related topics. The first section ''Earth's Power'' covers the birth of the universe, earthquakes, volcanoes and other natural disasters. '' Deadly Nature'' brings new meaning to the phrase ''acting like animals'', as we see the darker side of nature, from venomous creatures, deadly carnivores and a real surprise about a very common and well known bird. ''Wild Science'' has a mixed bag of topics with dangerous elements, explosions, fireworks and exactly how a bullet works, as well as the birth of a star. ''Tough Machines'' dips into technology and innovation with an incredible variety of mechanical subjects with everything from massive transport vehicles and diggers, to robots, military vehicles, ice breaking ships, rockets, and flood control systems. The focus turns to geography with ''Harsh Lands'' show a myriad of cultures and lifestyles in inhospitable locations. Life is difficult in some regions due to nature, but man made hazards like Chernobyl and land mines occur as well. Finally we close with history and ''Brutal Battles''. This covers ancient warfare with events such as the Battle of Marathon and the Siege of Masada right up to the Somme, the Battle Of Stalingrad with a heavy focus on snipers and the Battle of Kursk.
