Fun Science!

Hello everybody!
Today I am kicking of the blog tour for Fun Science by Charlie McDonnell!

Welcome, fellow humans (and others), to the the world of FUN SCIENCE! I'm Charlie, also known across the internet as charlieissocoollike.
In my book, I'll be taking you on an awesome journey through the cosmos, beginning with the Big Bang through to the Solar System and the origins of life on Earth, all the way down to the particles that make up everything around us (including you and me!).
Expect frequent digressions, tons of illustrations of not-so-sciencey things (NB a microwave flying through space), and pages packed with my all time favorite mind-bending science facts.
So, get ready for a faster-than-the-speed of-light (OK, not quite) tour of all of the best and most interesting things that science has to offer us... and most importantly: WELCOME TO THE UNIVERSE!

About Charlie

Charlie McDonnell (known on YouTube as charlieissocoollike) is a British Video Blogger, Filmmaker and Musician from Bath, who currently resides in London.

After starting to post YouTube videos in 2007, Charlie became the first Video Blogger in the UK to reach one million subscribers on YouTube. His most viewed video is of him doing a bad american accent (he's not sure why that happened) and his second most viewed video is "Duet With Myself," which he's a bit more proud of, honestly.

In 2010 Charlie released his first album, "This Is Me." People seem to really want him to make more music but he hasn't gotten around to that yet. Throughout 2013-14, Charlie made a series of four short films, funded directly by YouTube. He likes to think they got better as he made more of them, but is happy for you to disagree with him on that.

Over the years, Charlie has worked on numerous projects for charities, including Cancer Research UK, UNICEF, Children In Need, Comic Relief, Save The Children and the Alzheimer's Society. I guess he must like helping people or something.

Beyond his own YouTube channel, Charlie has worked on many online video projects, notably "Science of Attraction," hosted by Derren Brown, and a series of video blogs from behind the scenes of Doctor Who for the BBC. He's also worked with many brands to produce videos for his own channel, including Microsoft, Sony Pictures, Pixar, Disney, and Tommy Hilfiger.

Charlie is a regular participant in Radio 1's Internet Takeover show (yes, for the actual radio) and he's also tried his hand at voice acting for Mike Bithell's upcoming video game "Volume." He's pretty new to both of these things, but fortunately hasn't been told off for doing a bad job by his bosses. Yet.

In his spare time Charlie enjoys consuming media in all its forms, and hanging out with his girlfriend and their cat, Gideon. Basically, he is deceptively boring.

My review

~I was sent a copy in exchange for an honest review~

I give it - 4/5

My review - What I love about this book is that it is really fun. I enjoyed flipping through it and reading it all as it was very interesting and also very Charlie which is great. It is something that I think everyone would really enjoy reading and even if you just want to flip through it and read about different parts it works that way too. If you are a big fan of Charlies Fun Science videos then you will defiantly love this!

This not much to explain about this book other than if you love science or always wanted to learn more about science, like me, then this is defiantly the book for you. I always loved science when I was in school and was so happy when I got sent this to review. I enjoyed reading it and it is one of those books you could re-read over and over again. It is so interesting!

I loved reading about the big bang and the solar system it was just so interesting and got me looking up more science stuff on the internet and I've started watching his Fun Science videos.

If you love science, Charlie or just want to learn some stuff then defiantly pick up this book! It is one that even though you'll just want to read one chapter you will end up reading more. This is a great book from Charlie and I'm glad he decided to do something with science and pretty much educate me in some of the stuff I didn't know. Defiantly a book for all age ranges!
