Synopsis
Did you know? In just one minute the Earth travels 1,100 miles around the sun. Cartwheel champ Brianna Schroeder turns 48 cartwheels. 28,824 photographs are taken (822 of them at Disney World). Over [pound]50,000 is spent on eBay. You lose 8 brain cells, 40,000 skin cells, and one taste bud. A ladybird flaps its wings 60,000 times. 6,805,555 e-mails are sent. Jean-Yves Mulot breaks 42 flaming concrete blocks with his bare hand. Whew! Filled with hundreds of incredible and true facts and statistics. The 60-Second Encyclopedia puts a whole new spin on maths, science, nature, the human body, and popular culture too. And, with a one-minute sandglass packaged with the book and dozens of interactive activities, readers can test what they (or their hamster) can accomplish in just one minute.
