The debunking of myths – especially the ones that we have believed to have been true our whole lives. Entertaining and enlightening – the visual appeal of this book will keep readers hooked! The presentation of the findings – both the false and the facts – are direct, informative and written in an authoritative yet conversational tone. (This book would be an excellent one for kids to sink their teeth into this school holidays!)
