Produced and published by science centres in an appealing format, science popularisation books, especially those meant for children, reveal science centres’ concerns. Their purpose is to get youngsters informed about topical issues, to provide them with additional information about the workshops and the exhibitions they attend and visit, to foster interaction between them and demonstrators and to enrich science centres’ libraries. Moreover, these books inform youngsters about other people’s cultures and concerns and as a result get them committed to values of tolerance.
