This book， produced by National Geographic Kids， is broken down into seven sections: Why Me？ Why on Earth （Earth being the operative word）？ Why in the Sky？ Why， Where & When， Why-Fi （think technology）？ Wild Whys （think animals）？ and The Whys of Our Lives。 Within each of these sections， the producers of this book ask: Who？ What？ Can？ How？ Why？ and more！ There are sometimes "Obstacles" to straight answers， as with "Why Can't I Dig a Hole to the Other Side of the Earth？" and there are information [ This book， produced by National Geographic Kids， is broken down into seven sections: Why Me？ Why on Earth （Earth being the operative word）？ Why in the Sky？ Why， Where & When， Why-Fi （think technology）？ Wild Whys （think animals）？ and The Whys of Our Lives。 Within each of these sections， the producers of this book ask: Who？ What？ Can？ How？ Why？ and more！ There are sometimes "Obstacles" to straight answers， as with "Why Can't I Dig a Hole to the Other Side of the Earth？" and there are information [what I would call] side bars， i。e。 "Person of Interest，" （which shows up frequently throughout the book）。The pages are all very colorful and most entries aka questions and answers are accompanied by a photo or illustration of some type。 Occasionally， there are easy to read / understand tables， as well， i。e。 Why Do the Prices of Toys， Candy， Cars， and Everything Else Rise Over Time？At the end is an index， a list of illustration credits， and a list of staff credits。If you have kids （or adults） who tend to ask a lot of questions about what is what or how things work or sometimes， don't work， I highly recommend this book to them。 This could keep them occupied for a long time。 。。。more

Huge book， both in size and scope。 Topics are separated on the page in colorful boxes and with pictures that make it appealing to kids。
