This is actually a pretty cool book. As with any book you might want to read it first. Or at least check out the questions and read any you are curious about. I can see this being something a kid might sit down and read through. Even adults will enjoy it. The art work is brightly colored and holds your attention. The explanations are short enough to read quickly. I will be ordering more for other kids.

My son is very book smart, but I wanted to buy him something that would peak his interest. He’s very curious and this book is amazing. It gives him so many fun facts and interesting ways how everything works. He couldn’t wait to tell me some of the facts. Highly recommend!

I have a 7 year old son who has fallen behind in reading so I thought I would purchase this product in hopes he would gain knowledge along with practice reading. Not only did he have fun reading, he didn’t want to quit turning page after page. Topics were fun! “Why do we fart?” What 7 year old boy could pass that up! What was amazing was how much he retained when I questioned him. Even recalling hours later when telling his mother what he learned.

A few grown-up questions
Wondering
about something?
Here’s what to know before choosing your copy.
Is this a storybook or an encyclopedia?
It’s an illustrated question-and-answer encyclopedia. You can dip into a question that interests your child instead of following a story from beginning to end.
Does it actually have 10,000 questions?
10000 Whys is the book’s title. This hardcover edition contains 174 questions across 6 chapters.
Will my child need help reading it?
That depends on their reading level. Younger children will need a grown-up to read with them. More confident readers can explore independently and ask for help when they need it.
What if my child doesn’t usually pick up books?
Start small. Let them choose a picture, then explore just one question together. Keep it relaxed. This gives you another way to invite them into reading, without making it a task.
Is it a good gift for my grandchild?
If they love asking questions, it gives you something to enjoy together. Read a page when they visit, or ask what they discovered on your next call. It’s a gift with plenty to talk about.
Can we read it a little at a time?
Absolutely. Pick one question at bedtime or browse together on a quiet afternoon. There’s no need to finish a chapter in one sitting.
