This 2025 almanac is filled with insightful pictures of innovations and captions of places I would like to try out and visit. There is a picture of a ten second toothbrush that looks like a mouth guard. I don't know how clean my teeth would be in 10 seconds, but I would still try this product. There is a small picture of a roll of bamboo toilet paper. These are two products that can help me improve my physical hygiene that I would try.
There is a picture of musical clothing that corresponds to a person's movements and a talking text machine that can make reading faster for me. There is also an interesting picture of a robot lifting a child with a disability. I like this picture because robots give me hope for the future of my health care as a disabled person. These are three innovations I would enjoy using.
The captions in the almanac refer to places and sights I have never been to or seen. There is a caption of a reference to camel races in Kenya and a marathon along the Great Wall of China. These captions raise my curiosity to visit these places. There is a unique picture of a person in a wheelchair guiding a group of hikers along a trail in Washington State. This is a great picture that inspires me to visit Washington State to see if I can do achieve the same in my wheelchair. There is a picture of a flower in the shape of Darth Vader's head in Central America. I would like to visit Central America to see if I could find other unusually shaped flowers. I love the information I learned by looking at the pictures and reading the captions in this almanac.
This is a pretty good book. It covers a wide range of information from animals to geography. This is very interesting and I highly recommend it. They manage to make everything engaging by adding things like spies in ”Culture” and cool inventions in “Science and Technology”. Read it
This was a really interesting book that covered lots of cool topics. My favorite was learning that there was actually a job in the past where you entertained kings by farting on command lol. Then, there was a part about clouds that was talking about the type of clouds that make people sing “Oh what a beautiful morning” which I took as a reference to the musical Oklahoma, because that is the opening song to that musical. Well, this is a kids’ almanac from 2025. No kid reading this is going to understand that reference and I just laughed deliriously for like 2 minutes. However there was one small reference somewhere to something that said “all genders.” I don’t know how many genders the author(s) of this book believe there are but that seems to me that it implies that there are more than just two.
