Colour in Science

by Sally Morgan, Adrian Morgan

Part of a series which focuses on the subject of colour to cover a wide variety of topics. Although they are predominantly science based, each book includes many cross-curricular elements. Rather than taking the traditional approach of dealing with each colour in turn, these books examine the theory of colour and its application in every day life. Throughout each book questions are posed to encourage further thought and to promote learning through discussion. Project suggestions are included at the back of each book which can either be carried out at home or in the classroom.

About the author

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the GoodReads database with this name. See this thread for more information.


Sally Morgan is a leading author of children's information books. She has written more than 250 titles, covering wildlife, natural history, science, geography, and environmental topics. She writes for all ages from first readers through to 16+ readership as well as books aimed at family readership.

Sally read Natural Sciences at Cambridge which was followed by several years of research into the restoration of derelict land. She then taught biology for a few years before turning to writing. With her love of the natural world and her concerns about the loss of habitats worldwide, it was not surprising that she chose to write about wildlife and environmental issues.

She is lucky enough to own a small organic farm in Somerset. When she is not writing she can be found on the farm looking after her rare breed poultry, sheep and pigs or weeding the kitchen garden! Conservation is important to her and the farm is managed to improve biodiversity. Keen to connect people with their food, Sally has set up a small education centre on the farm, where people can learn about smallholding, butchery and other rural skills.
