What really happens to water when it freezes? Which is the coldest part of the Earth? Why do insects move more slowly in colder water? And what is coldness anyway? In this book you can find out the answers to these fascinating questions, and many others. You can read about glaciers and icebergs, snow, and frost. Discover what damage cold can do, and how plants and animals survive cold weather. Learn, too, how people today create coldness and use it in many ways - for example, to preserve food, cool down hot places, and provide opportunities for fun and sport.
