Customer Reviews:
Now in a special tenth anniversary edition
By Midwest Book Review - December 18, 2010Now in a special tenth anniversary edition, Why? is a children's question-and-answer book about nature, science, and how the world really works. From "How does all this food get here?" explaining the basics of supermarket distribution, to "What makes that toy glow in the dark?" ("Glow in the dark toys include electrons that get excited by light."), to "Why are peaches fuzzy?" ("Peach fuzz stops a sickness called brown rot from touching the peach skin and rotting the fruit"), Why? lives up to its title. Cheery, simple color illustrations fill this wonderfully informative and entertaining book, enthusiastically recommended to parents and children's library collections alike, in order to kindle a passion for learning in inquisitive young minds.
Why, why, why
By SuzanneJ - January 5, 2011I gave this book to my grandson as a Christmas gift because he is constantly asking, "Why?" The book description says it is for readers 4-8 and my grandson is only 3, but given his high level of curiousity, I thought he would enjoy it--and he does. He likes the fact that many of the things he has wondered about are addressed in the book, and he really likes the illustrations. The text, however, is at times too technical for him and even for his 6 1/2 year old sister. For example, the explanation about the funny noise that occurs when bathwater drains away refers to "an empty space, called a vacuum . . ." and compares the bathtub drain to a drinking straw. Neither of the kids could grasp the concept. I think the book is well-written and valuable, and I would buy others in this series, but parents (and grandparents) should be aware that they may have to supplement the text with further discussion, explanation, and research.
