Description

'The kids are having a ball (whoops, having fun) and a discussion is born' - 4 stars, Good Reading For the Grown-Ups: You know how you're right all the time? All. The. Time. Yes, well, it's time to give the kids a turn. Which is why everything you read in this book is going to be wrong. But that's ok, because the kids are going to correct you. And they're going to love it! PRAISE FOR THE BOOKS THAT DRIVE KIDS CRAZY SERIES 'Funny, clever, deliciously dry ... this book encourages kids to think outside the square, and hopefully, somewhere deep in that unlimited subconscious, understand that what we see is all about perception. What a powerful thought' -- Kids' Book Review 'Witty, silly, and interactive ... A rollicking read for children and adults alike' -- Kirkus Reviews
