The third book in the captivating Meet the Universe series from MIT Kids Press introduces readers to photons - the particle that sheds light on the universe!

Meet the incredible photon – the fundamental particle that makes up light. Thanks to the photon, we can see colours and the world around us – and photons also make up the light we can't see, like radiowaves and X-rays. Travel faster than the speed of light as you join the photon on a fascinating journey to uncover their extraordinary secrets. Then work together with the photon to make new scientific discoveries and change the world for the better.

Kid-friendly rhyming text from physicist Eve M. Vavagiakis and luminous artwork from Mike Malbrough will spark young readers' curiosity and have them racing to make their own discoveries.

Eve M. Vavagiakis holds a PhD in physics from Cornell University. A space enthusiast since childhood, she now works in experimental cosmology as part of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope, CCAT-prime, CMB-S4, and Simons Observatory collaborations to build instrumentation and study the oldest light in the universe. She also codirects the high energy physics reader’s digest blog ParticleBites.
