Mammoth friend

With a mammoth and his owner as your guides, learn about the inner workings
of everything from a can opener and a grand piano to a nuclear power station in
The New Way Things Work by David Macauley. The graphics are superb and the CD
lets you test your knowledge and brings the gadgets to life. I would give it
nine out of ten. Ideal for inquisitive children over 10. Published by Dorling
Kindersley, £19.99 for book and £29.99 CD-ROM, ISBN 0395938473.
