Why are the trees green, and what do the plants eat? Why did he have to shower? Why don't planes fall from the sky?
Some children may have already asked one of the 22 questions “Why do I not notice Earth rotation?” But the book also addresses questions that may seem out of context, such as whether some maps are still valid and whether clouds are clouded. Real.
Among the issues illustrated by teacher James Doyle is a question about the source through which humans know how the dinosaurs looked, why the taste of drugs often bitter, how thunder and lightning arise, and what is in a black hole.

Young readers learn from the book that there are small objects that may have loved the moment they read and hover around their face, the reason why hair and nails grow rapidly sometimes, and sometimes slower, and that the length of an adult's blood vessels can stretch around the Earth four times if I called each other.
The author also explains why the night sky looks as if the stars glow, how the universe originated according to the prevailing view taught in schools and universities, and why shouting is not heard in space.
Doyle also discusses the relationship of the hat-maker in the story of Alice in Wonderland to mercury, and why the sea looks blue.
The book provides useful explanations, but it is not necessary to capture all the core of children, especially as the book accommodates all the natural sciences. The illustrations of Claire Goble, who accompany the chapters of the book, are also reasons why the book is fun.
