Reach for this book when your child starts pepper-spraying you with endless why questions and you want to celebrate their inquisitive spirit rather than providing dry answers. It is the perfect tool for a child who feels a bit overwhelmed by the mysteries of the world or for the kid who loves to play with words and ideas just for the sake of fun. Calef Brown uses absurdist poetry to validate that not every question has a solution, and that is where the magic happens. This collection of poems follows a young narrator through a series of increasingly surreal and silly inquiries about the world around him. From pondering the inner lives of objects to questioning the logic of nature, the book reinforces that curiosity is a superpower. It is ideal for children ages 4 to 8 who are developing their own sense of humor and beginning to appreciate the rhythmic, playful side of language. Parents will find it a delightful way to bond over the joy of shared wonder.
