Riassunto:

How do fish breathe? Can bulls really see red? Did unicorns really exist? Why do wolves howl at the moon? Can you get to China by digging a hole?
Here in paperback are four outstanding books that will whet the appetite of any child who is curious about the world and how it works. Dr. Myers answers questions in a warm, informative manner that helps young readers understand the complexity of science. Boys and girls discover that science needn't be dull and dry--it can be fun and exciting. What makes these books even more special is that they feature questions and answers that have been collected from a quarter century of Highlights for Children. These are real questions from real kids.
