Juvenile Nonfiction. Science. Technology. HTML: Fact-filled, fun-filled, as interesting to parents as it is to kids, the How Come? series is the trusted source for lively, clear answers to kids' science queries. Now the best questions and answers from all three books�??How Come?; How Come? Planet Earth; and How Come? In the Neighborhood�??have been revised, updated, freshly illustrated in full color, supplemented with twenty completely new questions, and combined into one bigger, better volume. How Come? explains, in fascinating detail, more than 200 mysteries and phenomena in the world around us. These are the questions that pique kids' curiosity�??and stump parents. When it rains, does running (rather than walking) to the nearest shelter really keep you any drier? How can a stone skip across a pond (instead of sink)? If the Earth is spinning, why can't we feel it? Why don't we fly off? Why do elephants have trunks? And the all-time classic, Why is the sky blue? (Sunlight has a hidden rainbow of colors, and air molecules scatter blues the most�??sending bright blue light down to Earth.) The text is clearly written, engaging, and accessible. It's for every kid who wants to know�??and every grown-up who simply doe… (lisätietoja)

A book about questions kids ask all the time, the "how come..?" and "why does...?" Lots of information and sparks even more questions that aren't in the book.

Every kid's science questions explained

jhawn | Jul 31, 2017 |

This book has some of the best explanations of natural phenomena I’ve ever encountered. Take the simple question, “why is the sky blue?” I have googled this and come up with many many hits, but none really made sense to me. This book, however, explains it in a way that gives you an “aha” moment. Even the questions she poses are great: Why, for example, does a mirror reverse images from side to side but not top to bottom? What do you really hear when you put a seashell to your ear? How do fish breathe underwater? Why do songs get stuck in your head? How does arm hair know to stop growing? Why does scratching make an itch feel better? Why can’t we tickle ourselves?

All of the questions in the book were submitted by real kids all over the world to Newsday’s “How Come” newspaper column.

Kids and parents alike will love the fun and plentiful cartoon-like color illustrations by Debra Solomon.

Evaluation: This is a terrific resource both for curious kids and for the parents who get posed all the questions from curious kids. Additionally, it will be a great help for kids who don't get full answers in school. Originally published in 1993, this is an updated version with more precise answers and twenty new questions. (
