Product Description

Product Description
How loud can you burp? Could we use animal poo to make electricity? Why is water wet, and is anything wetter than water? What's the deadliest disease in the world? What are clouds for? What's the difference between a brain and a computer? This is a wonderfully funny and informative book which helps us take a fresh look at the world (and universe) we live in, with no boring bits and an abundance of fascinating facts!

About the Author
Before moving to the US in 2007, Glenn Murphy worked at the Science Museum, recruiting, training and overseeing the management of the 75-strong team of dynamic, bubbly science communicators who perform shows and interact with the public on the galleries. He now lives in North Carolina with his wife.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for a 12 year old, 14 Nov 2008
Brought this for my dyslexic 12-year-old son who normally likes books which have small fact based sentences.

He hated this one.

Said it was "boring" and "rubbish compared to the Wombats bum book which is fabulous" and he devoured.

Possibly a better book for a younger child but we only tried this because of his lower reading age and because of the style of the book - Wrong choice.
