ask me anythingDorling Kindersley's Ask Me Anything - every FACT you ever wanted to know makes a huge claim and, judging by the length of the index, probably an exaggeration but it is nevertheless a fascinating book and a treasure trove of trivia.

Organised into key sections such as Human Body, Transport, Space and Dinosaurs, Ask Me Anthing presents a huge array of facts and figures in a mixture of lists, Q & A, timelines and quirky points like "I don't believe it!" and "Weird or what?"

The page layouts are busy but easy-to-read although you do have to rotate the book sometimes to read the copy.

It's a great book to dip into for fascinating facts like the flatulence of a single sheep could power a small truck for 25 miles a day! Or that a man will shave 20,000 times in an average lifetime? And you can solve the problem of where you go to post letters under water – should the need arise!

This DK book would make a great Christmas present and is available from Amazon. To buy a copy just click the link below:
