A book filled with questions kids have actually asked, with answers from scientists, authors and academics. The questions range from the fantastic (How do mermaids pee?) to the profound (Why was there a Big Bang?). And the answers are short, smart and to-the-point. A great gift for the always-curious child."

From creatures dwelling in the depths of the world’s oceans to those in wetlands and ponds, this newest anthology by DK encompasses almost every living thing that calls a body of water its home. Honestly, I could get lost in this book with all of its amazing facts and vivid images for hours on end. Note: there are some freaky things living at the bottom of the ocean, so parents beware..."

Told from the point of view of Curiosity the Mars Rover, this large format picture book is packed with facts about how to take a trip to Mars. I love the modernist style illustrations too.

The Disgusting Critters books are easy to read non-fiction about, well disgusting creatures. They all really make me laugh, but especially the Head Lice one and although the creatures may be considered disgusting, the characters in the books are all cheerful and friendly.

One of the gorgeous new hardcover non-fiction books from DK. This is a treasure from the gold embossed cloth cover and the ribbon bookmark to the perfect combination of photographs and illustration and easy to read facts about animals. Any of the books in this series make a great gift.

Pocket-sized and a little old fashioned, there is something very charming about this field guide to mushrooms. And the photos are really detailed.
