About this book

This charming picture book takes a fun and whimsical look at the concept of measurement for curious little learners.

Have you ever wondered how tall you are in tin cans? Or did you know that your body gives off enough energy to power a light bulb? Our bodies are amazing things and there are so many reasons why 

From height and weight to volume and more, different units of measurement are explored through comparisons with everyday objects that will be familiar for young children, like tin cans, washing, and toys.

There is even a gorgeous pull-out height chart at the end of the book for children to measure themselves in both centimetres and tin cans!  

Written from the perspective of a child and featuring bright, adorable illustrations of different children, the book captures the sense of curiosity and wonder that children have for the world around them. It introduces the concept of measuring in a personal and relatable way, making it easier for young learners to grasp – and to have fun with!
