Book description
Published to tie in with Mick Jackson's appointment as the first
writer-in-residence at the Science Museum, Junior Science comprises
three stories - 'Zero Gravity', 'The Answering Machine', and 'Back to
School'. Commissioned by BBC Radio 4, they were originally broadcast
in November 2011. Full of wonder, pathos and mystery, the stories are
marked by Jackson's unique sensibility, as they explore the way
children start to become aware of the world around them.
Mick Jackson ('a genuine English eccentric' - Sunday Times) is
the Booker Prize-shortlisted author of The Underground Man. His other
books include Ten Sorry Tales and, most recently, The Widow's Tale.
