Reach for this book when your child starts repeating tall tales as absolute facts or when they begin to show a skeptical, investigative mind. It serves as a gentle introduction to the scientific method by encouraging children to question 'common knowledge' and look for evidence rather than accepting every story they hear. Through a series of engaging true or false propositions, Seymour Simon helps children navigate the difference between cultural folklore and biological reality. While the primary focus is natural science, the underlying emotional theme is the joy of discovery and the value of intellectual honesty. It is perfectly suited for children ages 5 to 9 who are moving from a world of magical thinking into a more concrete understanding of the physical world. Parents will appreciate how it builds critical thinking skills and vocabulary while fostering a deep respect for the wonders of the natural world.
