I have a 9 year old grandson who has fallen behind in reading so I thought I would purchase this product in hopes he would gain knowledge along with practice reading. Not only did he have fun reading, he didn’t want to quit turning page after page. Topics were fun! “Why do we fart?” What 9 year old boy could pass that up! What was amazing was how much he retained when I questioned him. Even recalling hours later when telling his mother what he learned.

A peek inside

Sample questions. Big discoveries.

Take a look at what you and your grandchild could discover together.

Child reading: Why do sharks have so many teeth?

Wild Animals

Why do sharks have so many teeth?

A shark cannot visit a dentist when a tooth breaks. Many sharks have new teeth waiting in rows behind the ones they use. This keeps a fresh supply ready.

New teeth move forward when old teeth fall out. Think of a line of spare parts moving into place. Sharks replace teeth throughout their lives, so worn or broken teeth do not stop them from feeding.

Child reading: Why does popcorn pop?

Food

Why does popcorn pop?

A popcorn kernel holds a little water inside a tough shell. Heat turns the water to steam. Pressure builds until the shell bursts open.

The drop in pressure lets hot starch puff out. It forms a foam, then cools into the white shape you eat. The kernel grows much bigger because its starch spreads out. No extra corn has been added to it.

Child reading: Why do volcanoes erupt?

Earth

Why do volcanoes erupt?

Hot, melted rock can rise through cracks in Earth's crust. It holds gases that may expand as the pressure drops. The expanding gas helps push rock toward the surface.

Trapped gas helps drive many eruptions. Thick melted rock can hold gas in, while runnier rock lets it escape more easily. This helps explain why some volcanoes pour out lava and others blast ash high into the air.
