PRODUCT SUMMARY
For sale in U.S. and Canada only-- In Cooling, a visiting inventor and two young islanders, Olive and Troy, try to beat the heat on a hot summer day by cooling off in the river -- only to find that the Island’s mammoth population has already beaten them to the water, and there’s no room left for the humans! Olive suggests that they build a machine to create a breeze for them. After tinkering in the inventor’s workshop for a time, they apply what they learn about how refrigerators work and wind up building some machines that are really cool -- with no mammoths necessary! Part of the multivolume The Way Things Work DVD Series, based on the best-selling book by David Macaulay. A teacher's guide is included and available online.
EDITORIAL REVIEWS
"The series is humorous, informative and very educational. Explanations are clear and relevant, with neccesary diagrams to explain exactly how things work...These are exceptional physics videos that merit a place in all educational collections."- School Library Journal (August 2003)
