Clever books with lots of fun questions (and answers) about things you might have always wondered about - like how to go to the bathroom in space and why airplanes can fly. The author makes these facts fun and I liked it.
Ed Zotti, el auténtico hombre detrás del seudónimo de Cecil Adams, habla en este libro de un montón de cosas curiosas pero inútiles, más enfocadas a los niños. ¿Por qué se contagian los bostezos? ¿Cuántas personas han vivido en total en la Tierra? ¿Cómo imprimen la M en los M&Ms? ¿Por qué duele cuando muerdes una bola de papel de aluminio? Un auténtico montón de preguntas CPI con respuestas entretenidas y simples. Muy, muy entretenido y recomendable.
