Product Description
Product Description
How strange it is! Kids will go crazy over every wacky, sometimes icky, always entertaining fact in this brand-new Little Giant compilation. The topics range from food to customs, animals to history, nature to sports. For example, in Marostica, Italy, an immense chess board is built into the public square: the pawns and all the pieces are human beings, and the knights sit on real horses! Or how about this: Maine actually has a law that prohibits anyone from stepping out of a plane while it's in the air. From weird worms that stop island natives in their tracks to 4000 year old bathrooms with modern drainage systems, each tidbit of information is truly a treat.

Bought for my sons 10th birthday. He loves all things daft just like all boys at that age (in fact do they ever grow up from that age!) and he thought this little book was great fun. Arrived quickly and would recommend. Do note though that it is only a litte book so if you're imagining a big sort of annual type book it isn't it's only small but packed full of fun.

I purchased this for my 11yr old who usually has a lot of interest in this type of book. I was more interested than her this time. I read many of the facts out loud on a road trip.
It is filled with goofey laws made throughout the states, which are Goofey. It is entertaining enough for awhile, the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it does get redundant after awhile.
