Hello, young explorer!

Have you ever wondered why oil is called "black gold"? How does an ordinary oily liquid turn into the light of bulbs, gasoline for cars, and even plastic for your toys? Set off on an amazing adventure through time: from ancient bonfires where oil burned to the giant drilling rigs in Siberia built by Russian engineers! You will learn where oil hides, how it is found with the help of special instruments, and why thousands of kilometers of pipes stretch across Russia - like a web made of steel. You will also hear stories about brave inventors who conquered the eternal frost, and how oil unites countries or becomes a reason for disputes. Here you will find only bright facts, puzzles, and experiments that can be repeated at home. Do you want to know how oil drives entire cities and why without it even airplanes would come to a halt?

Then open the book - secrets await you that won't be told in school!
