<div>Everyday activities such as taking a trip to the park, splashing in the bathtub, or fixing a snack prompt many questions from young children. Why is the sky blue? Why is soap so slippery? Why do cows moo? Curious kids want to know, and adults never seem to have the answers. <i>Why?</i> provides easily understood explanations of dozens of everyday mysteries. This delightful book takes readers to the supermarket and the park, around the home and onto the farm, and from bath time to bedtime. Bright, playful illustrations are a perfect complement to the text, adding a further level of explanation. </div>

If there is such a thing as an expert on kids' questions, it would be Catherine Ripley. As a former editor of the award-winning Chickadee magazine for young children, Catherine began collecting questions submitted by curious readers. She continued through visits to various schools and libraries, turning her talent for making science fun to all the great questions kids could come up with. Catherine is also the author of Two Dozen Dinosaurs (Owl Books).
