What makes a guitar strum, a balloon pop, or a whisper travel across a room? Sound is all around us-buzzing, echoing, bouncing, and sometimes completely silent. This exciting science book takes kids ages 7 to 12 on an ear-opening journey into the invisible world of sound, showing how it moves, how we hear it, and how it shapes our everyday lives in ways we don't always notice.
Packed with fun facts, real-world examples, and kid-friendly language, this book dives into everything from how animals use sound to communicate, to why we can't hear in space, to how music is changing with new technology. Along the way, readers will explore strange sound mysteries, test simple experiments using things like balloons and string, and discover how engineers use sound to design everything from cars to buildings.
Whether it's understanding pitch and volume, decoding how microphones work, or exploring the quiet power of silence, every chapter reveals how sound connects, protects, and inspires. Perfect for curious minds who love science, music, or asking big questions, this book doesn't just explain how sound works-it helps kids experience it in entirely new ways. Listen closely-adventure is making noise.
