Interesting book–fun to read with others!
[...]I read through this with my 12 year old. I was surprised to see how many facts he already knew! We actually wound up going through the lists as a trivia game and he knew WAY more than I did! I guess our investment in YouTube university is really paying off!What I like about this book is that in addition to the list of facts by category, there are also some stories (like the story of the Trojan Horse) that are told in a bit more detail. This is great for providing context to young readers.

Fun Read
[...]This book is filled with lots of great trivia. An example was the pistol shrimp which I watched a video of after learning about it from this book. There’s a lot of variety in the facts so everyone will find something that interests them.

So Many Facts!!
[...]This book has a wealth of facts and something to learn for both kids and adults. The categories are engaging – animals, space, food, etc. and many are very interesting to know. Each chapter also goes in depth into a few things in paragraph form at the end. Overall, I learned a lot! I do think the book was pretty dense for this age group and no pictures made it a long read in places. Each chapter could almost be its own book. Recommend for children looking to learn and have enough time to chunk the book (like a chapter a day) to learn and retain as much information as possible.
