Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'But why ' Every parent knows the question. It comes in the car, at bedtime, halfway through dinner, and too often the honest answer is 'I'm not sure.' This book is for those moments. The Curious Kid's Big Book of Why answers 300 real questions children ask, in ten chapters, with 310 drawings, one for every question. Each answer is about eighty words: long enough to explain properly, short enough to read aloud in under a minute. The ten chapters: Cosmic Wonders. Creature Discoveries. Weird Human Body. Everyday Physics and Tech. Ocean Depths. Dinosaurs and Prehistoric Worlds. Weather and Extreme Earth. Food and Kitchen Chemistry. The Mind, Memory and Senses. Mighty Machines and Future Tech. From why the sky is blue and why cats purr, to why you cannot tickle yourself and how a robot knows where it is, the questions are the ones kids actually ask, not the ones adults think they should. Answers you can trust. Every answer was written against two published sources, then checked a second time by an independent fact-checker before it went to print. Where scientists have not settled a question, the book says so, because knowing what we do not know yet is part of how science works. Built for reading, not testing. Open it anywhere. Large 7 by 10 inch pages, one or two questions per page, a drawing beside each. It works at bedtime, in the car, in a classroom, and on a rainy Sunday. Simple enough for a six-year-old to follow when it is read to them, and interesting enough that a twelve-year-old will read it alone. A gift that gets used. For a birthday, for Christmas, for the child who never stops asking why. It is the kind of book that lives on the kitchen table instead of on the shelf.
