Did you know you can make energy from the sun? Yes, it is true. This book talks about Energy Technology and how people use it.The genre of this book is science fiction.

This book shows all the different ways people are making energy to run electricity for their house and to charge battery's for their mobile devices. 1 of the main points of this book talks about inventions people have made to collect and store energy for later use. I think the authors purpose in writing this book was to show the reader how we have advanced in making technology and how we don't need to burn as much fossil fuel anymore because we found other solutions to make energy.
The structure of this book adds to this book because every page of this book talks about different inventions people have made that make energy and collect it. On page 16, in the caption, it said,"Thanks to special tiles on the soccer field, each step the soccer players take produces energy-enough to illuminate the field during the game and the surrounding neighborhood for about ten hours afterward.
I like the way the author just talked about energy sources we can use that won't harm the environment. On page 8, line 27, it said,"Many alternative energy researchers are driven by environmental concerns."
I would rate this book a 5 out of 5 stars. I rated this book a 5 because I love learning about cool ways to make energy like pedaling a bike to charge a laptop and things like that. I would recommend this book to people who are trying to figure out new ways to create and store energy to help the environment stay clean. Now you know how advanced we are in making and storing energy.
