Review by Horn Book Review

The titles of two- and four-page chapters pose questions answered with simple sentences in the texts. Some questions will inspire thought (""Do baseball bats rot?""), while the answers to others are so obvious as to be borderline insulting (""Are marbles hard or soft?""). The crisp photos on each page are ill served by the layouts: orange frames against white-and-blue backgrounds. Glos., ind.
