Summary

This is an irreverent and informative introduction to tricky questions about science. How do we know what dinosaurs looked like? Why does medicine taste so bad? Why dont airplanes fall down? Why Cant I Feel the Earth Spinning? encourages children to start asking and answering questions for themselves. The book is structured around twenty-two questions. Each section explores the question and answer with detailed illustrations, photographs, or diagrams and then asks further questions on a similar theme. Children learn about how their bodies work, why trees leaves are green, why people dream, and whether is really a cloud. Written with humour and full of fun illustrations, Why Cant I Feel the Earth Spinning? is the perfect primer for young inquisitive minds and budding scientists
