Top Pick
This
unique and inspiring book is perfect for the coffee table in the
homes of any family with children ages 9 and up. Affectionately
called a
"shuffle-pedia", Pick Me Up is a different kind of
encyclopedia--very visual and entirely mixed up. Shuffling through the
graphically rich pages is fun and totally addictive. Kids learn
diverse facts as they leaf through the appealing pages. Most importantly, they'll
want to
shuffle through without encouragement. And, if they need to
refer to the book in a more traditional manner, they can always make
use of the extensive index.
History, geography, science, natural history,
and plenty of miscellaneous facts are all here. One spread asks,
"While you were at school today, what were kids (age 12) doing
in other parts of the world?" Other topics include "Was Freud a
bit bonkers?", "How to tell when someone (really) likes you",
"Why do Boats Float?", and "What are you standing on?" Truly
fabulous!
