Awesome for kids who are starving for info!
Derived From Web , May 4, 2022
My son has a very good collection of books, including The Beatles' "Abbey Street" and "The History of Weird But True." In "Stuff That Happens," Michael Savage promises to give you tons of random, weird, and interesting facts. He also noted that the book is "large, very sturdy, and very good quality." My son loves to just pick it up for a couple minutes here and there, during some down time, because it's just so relaxing. Made for a great present!

Great book, BETTER THAN EXPECTED!!
Derived From Web , May 4, 2022
The new York Stock Exchange opened for trading yesterday, 1 day after its initial announcement. I was shocked even by Amazon's response, Mr. Hughes said. The book is a beautiful hard cover, colorful and attractive, Simon said. Tons of exciting pictures and info for kids of ALL AGES! It's great to be back home, Coach, lol. It's great to keep kids attention," said Gammerman. It's easy enough to read, but it's not a baby book, so older kids will enjoy the facts and weird tidbits as well as younger ones. It was well worth the price. All ages are welcome to enjoy this book. Jennette Tamayo, a New Haven resident, said she was "100 percent behind Jennette."

The book is a great read, too. I learn a lot from these books and it's great to be back home. If you love trivia, this is a good buy. It's just that I'm buying more just like it.

Kids love this book!
Derived From Web , May 4, 2022
My daughter and a few of her friends have all received copies of the book. It helps them keep their interest for a longer period of time, whether it be 5 minutes or an hour. The book is full of great photos, said Dr. Goin. It's a nice alternative to a fiction book, Raymond said. It's just that they keep going back to this book over and over.

Great images, pictures, and quality materials, Mr. D'Antonio said. She also thanked me for buying her a bike for her birthday and "to give her a present she can keep." It was a blast," said Blair, director of music for AOL Europe. It's educational, Mr. Rule told the judge.

Great Book
Derived From Web , Dec 6, 2021
My 11 year old grandson does not like to read as much as I would like, but after seeing this advertised on TV, I decided to give it a try. We exchanged gifts early this year and he was very excited to get this, McCartney said. It turned out that I had bought a second one for another present.
