The Handy Answer Book for Kids (and Parents) is a fun reference book filled with answers to hundreds of questions that kids like to ask. From sections on outer space to the workings of the human body, this book has compiled short, concise answers for those parents who may not always know every answer.
Things I Liked:
I enjoyed reading all the answers to these questions - many of which I never would have known the answers to. The book covers lots of topics, especially those that kids tend to be most curious about. The answers are written in a way that most kids will be able to understand, at least in part. It also covers questions that might be both for younger children and for older ones. It is a very well researched and thorough reference for parents.
Things I Didn't Like:
I definitely think the book is more for parents, especially when it gets to the last section, Daily Life, which has a lot of moral and theoretical questions that a parent may want to decide how and what they want to teach their children.
Read-alikes:
I haven't really read anything like it!
BOOK CONTENT RATINGS:

ReplyDeleteDoes it have anything on dinosaurs? I'm tired of having to google dinos based on their physical characteristics so I can tell the monkeys what kind their toys are....
:D
Britt, it sure does have a dino section! I'm sure that will come in handy (pun totally intended) for you and your kids!
