What Questions Ask Children

Children ask why constantly, and most of those questions have real answers that an adult cannot always produce on the spot. This reference gathers a good many of them in one place. Queries about nature, science, the body and ordinary household mysteries are answered in a few clear sentences each, without retreating into jargon or simplifying to the point of being wrong. Illustrations support the explanations, and the short entry format means a child can browse for the questions that interest them rather than reading front to back. Good to know: • Short answers written in language a young reader can follow • Questions drawn from science, nature and everyday life • Entry format that rewards browsing as much as reading through • Explanations that stay accurate while staying simple Handy for inquisitive children, parents fielding endless questions and teachers looking for quick explanations, published by OM Books and stocked at Boipoka.
