Description

We use different kinds of energy every day to give power for cars and lights and factories. What else needs energy to make it work? For a long time, people have used fossil fuels found under the ground and the sea. Coal, oil and gas were formed from animals and plants that lived millions of years ago, but fossil fuels will not last forever. New types of fuel must be found to power the world!

Author description

Series editor and author of the Red Rocket reading program, Pam Holden has more than 30 years specialist experience in literacy. As a Reading Recovery teacher she has worked one-to-one with hundreds of children struggling with literacy. Pam's pupils have also included those approaching English as a second language, and children who are advanced and require extension. This experience has given the author a rare insight into the literacy process and has enabled her to identify many key elements that consistently block children's progress.
