Systems of measurement were created to quantify natural phenomena and to allow us to deal more effectively with everyday life. People have measured lengths, weights and time since earliest times. Accurate measurements of weight were needed for trading goods and of length for marking out property and for building – and for these measurements to work they have to be based upon agreed standards. From those early measurements, many other units have been developed, each designed for a particular purpose.
This book covers units used in the following areas:
numbers; length and distance; areas; volume; time; speed; mass; weight and density; energy; force; temperatures.
It provides
• units and their sub-division
• conversions to other types of unit
• formulae for quick calculations
• an explanation of how the unit is measured
• what the unit is used for
In addition there are listings of abbreviations used for units, instruments used for measuring, and individuals who invented particular units.

Using a range of delightful animal characters throughout the book to depict the familiar, everyday words, artist Chris Fisher adds an abundance of humour and charm that will have readers coming back time and time again.
Each head word is incorporated into a simple sentence, to show word usage, and accompanied by an illustration. Key letters are shown very big, so children can copy or trace them with their fingers, and the full alphabet runs across the top of each spread, in capitals and lower case.
The book opens with an introduction for adults, explaining how to get the most out of the dictionary, and closes with a range of fun spreads that explore simple concepts such as colour, shapes and numbers.
