Overview
The I Wonder Why Ultimate Collection gathers twenty bestselling paperbacks from Kingfisher's much-loved question-and-answer series, covering everything from space and dinosaurs to oceans, ancient Egypt, inventions and the human body. Each title answers real questions children ask, using friendly text and bright cartoon illustrations. It's a brilliant way to build a home library or classroom science shelf, encouraging curiosity, independent reading and a genuine love of finding things out, one wonderful "why" at a time.
About the Book(s)
Since the series began, I Wonder Why has been answering children's biggest questions in the simplest, most engaging way possible. Rather than presenting facts as dry text, every book in this collection is built around genuine questions young readers ask, from "Why do stars twinkle?" to "Why are pyramids shaped like triangles?" and "Why does my tummy rumble?" Clear, concise answers sit alongside colourful, often funny illustrations, making complex ideas about science, history, nature and the world instantly accessible.
This 20-book paperback set spans a huge range of subjects, including space, dinosaurs, reptiles, oceans, ancient Egypt, baby animals, science, creepy-crawlies, natural disasters, transport, the environment, plants, explorers, inventions, life cycles, general animals, time and seasons, music and the human body. Titles such as Stars Twinkle and Other Questions About Space and Pyramids Were Built and Other Questions About Ancient Egypt sit alongside firm favourites like The Sea is Salty and Caterpillars Eat So Much, giving young readers a genuinely well-rounded introduction to the world around them.
Each 32-page paperback is designed for dipping in and out, with a contents page of questions and an index, so children can explore topics that interest them most. It's a format that works brilliantly for bedtime stories, classroom topic work, or independent reading practice, and the whole set makes an impressively substantial addition to any bookshelf.
About the Author
The I Wonder Why series is published by Kingfisher and written by a team of respected children's non-fiction authors, including astronomy writer Carole Stott, who penned Stars Twinkle and Other Questions About Space after a career at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich. Other titles in this collection are contributed by further specialist authors across science, history and nature, each bringing subject expertise to the series' trademark question-and-answer style, making complicated topics feel simple, fun and endlessly fascinating for young readers.
