A parent would reach for this book when they have a reluctant reader who is motivated by humor, gross-out facts, and bite-sized pieces of information. It is the perfect tool for a child who prefers 'dipping in' to a book rather than following a long narrative, or for a family looking to liven up a long car ride with weird and wonderful trivia. This A to Z guide is packed with strange but true facts that range from stinky animal defenses to oddities of the human body. While the tone is irreverent and silly, the content is grounded in actual science and history, fostering a sense of curiosity and wonder about the world. It is highly appropriate for the 6 to 9 age range, providing a non-threatening way to build vocabulary and scientific literacy. Parents choose this book because it validates a child's natural interest in the 'gross' side of life while transforming that interest into a genuine reading win.
