Publisher Description: Did you know that cars can run on french-fry grease or that human poop can be used to provide power to classrooms? Kids in Mexico help light up their houses by playing soccer, and in the Philippines, pop-bottle skylights are improving the quality of life for thousands of families. Brilliant is about what happens when you harness the power of imagination and innovation: the world changes for the better Full of examples of unusual (and often peculiar) power sources, Brilliant encourages kids to look around for new and sustainable ways to light up the world. |
