Real questions from a real kid. Ridiculous, wonderful science.

Every book in this series starts the same way every post in the Library does: something my son actually asked. These are for the youngest curious minds — picture books, not chapter books — and they lean all the way into the fun and the silly, on purpose. Hard science and math have always moved forward on wild, imaginative ideas as often as careful ones. A question doesn't have to sound serious to be a good one.
