Yet another fantastic Dorling Kindersley book, it is crammed full of information about all sorts of topics. It is the sort of book you could just flop open to a page and find out something new. The style is engaging and intended to be smart, with word bubbles and some labels going a little bit off topic! My favorite is the roller coaster graphic that ends up in a black hole!! It's another reason why the 031 section of the Dewey Decimalized library is becoming a favorite place for my readers. It's the sort of book that's hard to put down, easy to pick up and always fun to read. ( )

I liked it because it is so random. ( )

A fun book for kids and adults alike. Lots of interesting facts. Each section is a page or two long and presented in short, graphically enhanced, paragraphs or point form. ( )
