GREAT book :)

This book was one impulse buy that I have not regretted! Kids love to ask questions, and while I *usually* know the answer, I am not so good at putting the answer in terms that small children will understand. This book is a great go-to for those times! With vibrant pictures, and information delivered in short bits and pieces, with an easy two-page spread to cover each question, it is easy to give them the answer in the size/complexity that they have the attention span for. For example, my 2-yr-old was amazed by the pictures, and not interested in reading the information. But she has retained information gleaned from the pictures. My 4-yr-old loves to sit down and hear all about one question, and loves to show off with (of course), "Did YOU know..?" about what she learns. And it's great easy reading for the 8-yr-old to do on his own :) Not to mention that it's interesting for ME too! ;) I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone with children or grandchildren!

Excellent book for kids!

Excellent book for kids, with colorfull photos and short descriptions of each section presented, included a three questions quick quiz at the end of each section . The book is divided in six (6) sections: Space, The Earth, Living World, History, Science, and Human Body. Each section has various subsections (refer to attached photos). My son has 6 years and he is very excited with this book.
