I found this book at the bookstore and really liked the concept. It was in a small local independent store where they had put it in the children's section. It was such a cute book---I like cute and small. I didn't realize until I went to the publisher's website that the book was written for grown ups and not kids. How silly that is. I know so many kids who would love this book....namely kids like my nephew Alex who loves books about facts and figures. He would rather read this kind of a book than a novel or story book. I figure he is reading so it is ok.
by Robert Dinwiddie is a nicely packaged book with around 400 illustrations that explains science to the unscientific. I enjoyed the explanations of things like the solar system, earthquakes even human body stuff because I could understand what it. The language is simple and jargon free. This is a great book for any one who likes to keep up on things without being overwhelming. Like I said it isn't meant specifically for kids but it would be great for them too!
