Deadly Science: Life Cycles

Every living thing on Earth goes through a life cycle, from birth through to growth and eventually death. Deadly Science Life Cycles takes young readers on a journey through the fascinating stages of plants and animals, including insects, birds, whales and flowering plants. Along the way, they will learn how environmental factors can influence these processes.

From the tiniest insect to the largest mammal, this book celebrates the incredible variety of life found in Australia. It also explores the important role some species play in the traditions and knowledge of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, helping children understand the deep connection between culture, science and the natural world.

About Deadly Science:

Deadly Science, founded by Corey Tutt, addresses the lack of STEM resources in regional and remote schools in Australia. Fuelled by Corey's passion for STEM and his experience of limited opportunities for Aboriginal people in this field, Deadly Science provides resources and learning experiences to bridge this gap. Corey's initiative began with personal efforts to support schools, leading to the establishment of Deadly Science in 2018. Since then, it has evolved into Australia's leading Indigenous STEM charity, impacting over 800 schools and community organisations nationwide.
