Great book for adults and kids. Fun drawings, fun facts and cool experiments that even I couldn't resist giving a go.

Like all the other Horrible Science books, this book was a really awesome book because it kept engaging me to keep on reading. With the funny pictures that relate to the topic and the jokes that actually teaches us things, that is the things that are awesome about this non-fiction book because it is really rare to have non-fiction books with humour and jokes in it! I recommend these series of non-fiction book because it is really entertaining but still has a lot of information in it!

You can't only hear sound waves, but you can also feel them! But even humans can make sounds so loud they shatter glass! ROAR! The loudest sound that a human can stand is 130dB(decibels), which makes your finger joints swell, your chest wobble, you get numb hands and feet, and you become giddy. When the sound reaches 210dB, it can knock holes not only in glass, but even in lead(but I think it will not knock though two separate thick metals)!
