I don't know why this book was in my list of books to read - I can only assume that my husband got it for the children, thinking they would like it. However, I do like tidbits of information, so I chose this as my next non-fiction book to read.
This book is a collection of oft-quoted sayings followed by a discussion about whether they are true or not, and covers a wide range of topics.
As an adult, there was nothing new in her, but for a child I can imagine it being quite interesting. Each chapter is only a few pages long, and though there are scientific discussions, nothing is too heavy for a 8+ year old to understand.
