Big questions explained in little kid language

Learning something new shouldn't feel like sitting through a boring lesson.

That's why this encyclopedia takes fascinating scientific ideas and breaks them down into explanations children can actually understand.

Each question includes four engaging parts:

  • Quick Answer: A simple explanation that gets straight to the point

  • Let's Go Deeper: Discover the fascinating science behind the answer

  • Try It Yourself: Explore the idea with a fun hands on activity

  • Ask This Next: Follow your curiosity to another exciting question

It's the perfect balance between learning something new and having fun along the way.

And who knows? Mum and Dad might learn a thing or two as well!

Beautiful colourful illustrations bring learning to life

Some things are simply easier to understand when you can see them.

With bright, engaging illustrations throughout, this encyclopedia helps children picture the incredible ideas they're discovering.

From animals and outer space to surprising scientific facts, the colourful pages make every new topic feel more exciting and approachable.

It's designed to capture children's attention and encourage them to keep exploring.

Because when learning looks this fun, turning the page becomes part of the adventure!

Not just reading, real little discoveries!

What makes this encyclopedia extra special?

Children don't just read the answers.

They get to explore them!

With simple hands on activities included alongside the questions, little learners can investigate fascinating ideas and discover how science connects to everyday life.

Whether they're observing something around the house, testing a simple idea or asking another question, every activity encourages them to think a little deeper.

It's a wonderful way to turn curiosity into creativity and learning into something children can experience for themselves.

Even the silly, weird & gross questions are included!

Let's face it.

Children don't only ask about planets, animals and rainbows.

Sometimes they want to know why farts make sounds, why snot changes colour or why animals do really strange things!

And that's what makes this book so much fun.

Alongside fascinating science and nature questions, it includes those wonderfully weird questions that make children giggle and grown ups laugh.

Because learning doesn't always have to be serious.

Sometimes the funniest questions lead to the most surprising discoveries!

Make bedtime a little more magical

Imagine replacing just a few minutes of screen time with an exciting new discovery.

Instead of another cartoon, your little one chooses a question and you explore the answer together.

One question might lead to another.

And before you know it, you've travelled from the ocean floor to outer space without leaving the sofa!

With its easy to follow explanations and fascinating topics, this encyclopedia is lovely for bedtime reading, quiet afternoons or spending a little extra quality time together.

A simple way to create meaningful moments while encouraging a lifelong love of learning.

Build confidence, curiosity & a love of learning

The more children discover, the more they want to know.

And that's a wonderful thing!

This encyclopedia encourages little learners to ask questions, think independently and explore the world with curiosity.

As they discover new facts and begin to understand how things work, they can develop their reading confidence, scientific thinking and problem solving skills.

It's not about memorising facts or getting every answer right.

It's about discovering that learning can be genuinely exciting.

Because curious little minds can grow into extraordinary big thinkers!

Perfect for birthdays, Christmas, school holidays or surprising a child who loves learning new things.
