This book is both educational and entertaining, which is a very good thing. Each summer my niece and nephew visit for a week or two. As their aunt, I am expected not only to make the vacation fun, but also keep their brains engaged. This book is going to be my masterpiece this summer! When I downloaded the book, I felt sure I would be able to answer quite a few questions because I did quite well in science, biology and related topics in school. Yeah, right! I got about 50% of the answers right. The funny thing is, the questions weren't particularly hard--more like clever, quirky, and a little "out of the box." But they are definitely knowledge that my niece and nephew (not to mention I) should know. I already tried out a few questions over the phone with the kids and they thought it was a riot! There was a lot of screaming and shouts of, "I know, I know"... only they DIDN'T know! It kept them guessing, which was great. Can't wait to try out the full contents of this cute book that keeps everyone guessing on our road trip this summer. Weird thing? This book is entertaining for kids and adults alike. I don't do pub quizzes so I don't have a clue whether this will help there or not, but I enjoyed learning what as in this book! I think it would also make a good "bathroom book" for those who like to read in there... or a quirky gift for those people who are difficult to shop for!
