"Visible Ink has been publishing the Handy Answer books for over a decade now and they have been a favorite in both school and public libraries. This informative resource will suit public and school library users well."— <i>American Reference Books</i><br /><br />"...the biggest problem for parents with inquisitive children is not knowing the answers. For those times, consider <i>The Handy Answer Book for Kids (and Parents)....</i>"— <i>Boston Globe</i><br /><br />"Part of a series of "Answer" books, this unusual and interesting book in its second edition helps parents answer, authoritatively, the wacky and wonderful questions that young children can ask. There is just the right balance of information to satisfy most youngsters without overwhelming. This book should not be kept on the shelf but rather left out to encourage questions and the seeking of answers."— <i>Children's Literature</i><br /><br />"Now...parents have a resource they can reach for when their kids throw a doozy of a question their way"— <i>San Diego Union Tribune</i><br /><br />"A great little reference book, filled with pictures and charts and other visual delights. The questions are a lot of fun, ranging from the profound "Who is God?" to the trivial "How does a vacuum cleaner pick up dirt?"" --Superfastreader.com<br />
