The First Scientists is the highly anticipated, illustrated science book from Corey Tutt of DeadlyScience. With kids aged 7 to 12 years in mind, this book will nourish readerstsquo; love of science and develop their respect for Indigenous knowledge at the same time.
 
Have you ever wondered what the stars can tell us? Did you know the seasons can be predicted just by looking at subtle changes in nature? Maybe you have wondered about the origins of glue or if forensic science is possible without a crime scene investigation. Australia's First peoples have the longest continuing culture on Earth and their innovation will amaze you as you leaf through the pages of this book, learning fascinating facts and discovering the answers to life's questions.
 
In consultation with communities, Corey tells us of many deadly feats adash; from bush medicine to bush trackers ndash; that are today considered 'science', and introduces us to many amazing scientists, both past and present. The breadth of tsquo;sciencestsquo; is incredible with six main chapters covering astronomy, engineering, forensic science, chemistry, land management and ecology. The first scientists passed on the lessons of the land, sea and sky to the future scientists of today through stories, song and dance, and many of these lessons are now shared in this book.
 
Vibrant illustrations by Blak Douglas bring the subjects to life, so youhsquo;ll never think about science as just people in lab coats ever again!
