We're mighty fuel--ready to power the world!
From lightbulbs and stoves to cars and planes, many things around us need fuel to work. Where does that fuel come from?
Follow oil on its journey from the time of the dinosaurs to the bottom of the ocean floor, through drilling machines and oil refineries, and right into our homes and vehicles. Discover oil's power and problems, and find out how the sun, wind, and water are providing cleaner forms of energy. Engaging text, bright illustrations, and approachable science explore why fuel matters, how it got here, and where it's going next.
