Perfect for those who always have another "why?", Ask a Scientist injects fascinating fun into science for kids.

The inside of this book is packed with real questions that real children are asking. These questions have piled in from every corner of the world including the USA, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Europe, India, China, and Japan. DK received a phenomenal number of responses from the survey they sent out, coming back with so many great questions to choose from! The questions were carefully selected to cover the main science topics.

From chemistry, physics and the human body, to all about the Earth, space, and the science of nature. They are fun, engaging, and, dare we say include some wonderfully weird questions that many adults wouldn't dream of asking. Ask A Scientist focuses squarely on kids - what they want to know and how best to give them the right answer.
