Have you ever asked WHY? - and actually wanted a real answer?
1,000 questions. Real answers. 10 incredible worlds of knowledge. One extraordinary encyclopedia.
The 100,000 Whys Encyclopedia is unlike any children's reference book you have seen before. Instead of repeating the same tired topics - space, dinosaurs, the human body - this book opens ten entirely new doors that no other children's encyclopedia has walked through:
- How money, markets, and the global economy actually work
- The true history of human communication - from cave paintings to the internet
- The incredible journeys of migrating animals, ships, aircraft, and the human body in motion
- The science of how we learn, think, feel, and create
- The machines that changed history - from the wheel to artificial intelligence
- The mysteries of ancient civilisations, explorers, festivals, food, and sport
- How our planet is changing - forests, deserts, pollution, and renewable energy
- The mathematics and patterns hiding in everyday nature
- The biggest unanswered questions in all of science
- What the future holds - and your place in it
Every chapter contains five incredible elements:
- WOW! Facts - jaw-dropping, record-breaking, share-immediately facts
- Did You Know? - discoveries that change how you see the world
- Try This! - hands-on activities with household materials
- Quick Quiz - test your memory, challenge your family
- 40 WHY? questions per chapter - answered honestly and clearly
What makes this encyclopedia different from everything else?
Most children's encyclopedias dumb things down until the answers are wrong. This one does not. Every answer is genuine, accurate, and written with the respect that curious young minds deserve. every page of the 100,000 Whys Encyclopedia is in full colour.
Perfect for: Curious children aged 6-12 School project research Bedtime reading Gift for a child who asks a lot of questions Read-aloud family discussions Home education
