Go! On an adventure
Schools out but the young people in your house are still hungry for answers to all of their "Why" questions. There are a number of different fun ways to find that information for them.
The troublesome Cat and his "Thingamajiger" help Sally and Nick answer
questsions they have about the world around them in the series The Cat in the Hat knows a lot about that.
The books talk about a large number of things that are interesting to
children and are written for younger readers. They can usually be
found in with the beginning reader books.
The cat shares more information to older readers in his learning library
series. These books give answers in the same fun way, but they are a
little longer. Unfortunatly, it isn't easy to find all the books in
this series because it can be found all over the children's non-fiction
section. If you want the book about deserts, it will be with all the
other desert books.
If the Cat isn't for you, try Miss Frizzell and her Magic School bus.
For years, Miss Frizzell has been answering the questions of her
students by taking them on field trips in her special bus. A large
number of these books are done with large pictures and a small number of
words to help children understand.
For more adventurous readers, there are a growing number of Magic School books done as chapter books. These books give more information, but don't have the same colour pictures as the original books.
Fans of the Magic Tree House series with Jack and Annie will love the companion guides. These books give extra information to answer questions not easily answered in the Tree House adventures. Learn more about the facinating places that Jack and Annie visit. The books are written with the answers to questions that Jack and Annie had during their adventure.
Adults know that National Geographic is a great source for information and increadable pictures. National Geographic Kids does the same thing for children. Like the Cat in the Hat and Magic School Bus, National Geographic has books for different ages. They have information on anything you might wonder about and some things you never thought to wonder about.
