A colourful information book filled with 100 fascinating and surprising facts.
Jerome Martin has written children's books about science, history,
Shakespeare and food. Before joining
Usborne in 2014, he spent a decade studying literature at Harvard,
Cambridge and the University of
Iowa, and several years behaving responsibly in a copywriting
office. Now, he spends his working hours
researching delightful and amazing facts, his evening hours
parenting two children, and the minutes inbetween
writing poetry.
Alice James joined Usborne after working in primary schools for a
while. She absolutely loves science, and over the years has lived
with chimps, spent a month in the rainforest, studied Biology at
Oxford University, and grown 200 carnivorous plants (not
necessarily in that order). Whilst at Usborne Alice has worked on
books on all kinds of science topics, from space to energy to the
periodic table.
Lan joined Usborne after working as a bookseller. She absolutely
loves learning about anything and everything. She has lived in
China, attempted to create the perfect aquarium biotope, studied
Anglo- Saxon, Norse and Celtic at Cambridge University, and can hit
an archery target from 100 feet away. Lan has always loved
collecting knowledge and as many weird facts as possible, so
working for Usborne really is a dream job!
