First big book of why

Amy Shields

3 ideas

  1. Explaining the world through why questions

    The book answers common childhood questions about the body, animals and daily life. Simple language and photographs make each answer concrete.

  2. Curiosity as the engine of learning

    Framed around a child's natural questioning, it models inquiry as the route to understanding. Asking why is presented as the first step of knowledge.

  3. Everyday phenomena made concrete

    Topics such as why we sleep or why leaves change color are explained with plain cause and effect. Familiar experience anchors each fact.
