With bright, bold illustrations by Aaron Cushley, Isabel Thomas’ The Bedtime Book of Impossible Questions explores a huge range of scientific topics in an engaging way that’s sure to satisfy committed young thinkers. Moreover, it’s also set to inspire 7+ year-olds who’ve yet to be sparked by the magic of science and nature.
Asking everything from “How does gravity work?”, “Why am I me and not someone else?”, and “Do plants have feelings?”, to “How do we know Earth is round?”, “Are aliens real?” and “Could I swim in ice-cream?”, this book is fascinating and fun. What’s more, not only does The Bedtime Book of Impossible Questions ask dozens of seemingly impossible questions that might keep you up at night, but it also shares answers, so readers can drift into thought-provoking dreams that’ll keep them curious about the world.
Why are bubbles always round? Could I ever touch a rainbow? Why can't I remember being a baby? Have you ever not been able to concentrate because there are SO many questions buzzing round your brain? The Bedtime Book of Impossible Questions will offer answers to the most bamboozling questions and curious queries that you can think of. How many stars are in the night sky? Why don't animals wear clothes? Do plants have feelings?
