The Atomic Split: A Nuclear Energy Story

By Dr. Glenn Sjoden and Alli Bone

The Atomic Split: A Nuclear Energy Story

What happens inside a nuclear power plant-and how can something we can't even see create enough energy to power entire communities?

The Atomic Split: A Nuclear Energy Story takes young readers on a journey through the science and engineering behind nuclear energy. From uranium and enrichment to nuclear fission, reactors, steam turbines, and even recycling used nuclear fuel, kids will discover how each step works together to turn nuclear energy into electricity.

Part of the Infrastructure Literacy(TM) series, The Atomic Split makes complex infrastructure approachable through colorful illustrations, kid-friendly explanations, and real-world engineering. It's designed to help curious young minds understand not just what powers our world, but how it works-and inspire the next generation to keep asking questions about the systems that shape our everyday lives.
