The amount of facts my 10 year old now has to bamboozle and impress people is too much. Don’t buy this book if you want a silent, quiet child after reading. Hearing them laugh when reading the booking then listening to them tell me (and many others) the mind-blowing facts was brilliant.

Bought for my 8 year old but all the kids in the house have loved it…..and some of the adults too! Would be great as a stocking filler.

Brilliant! My kid won’t put it down (which is exceptional), so I had to read it myself and learned a thing or 2. Perfect gift for an 8y old.
by Susan Morgan
I bought this book for my 9 year old as she loves facts but the whole family ended up reading and loving it! Hilarious and interesting in equal measures with lots of fun facts and also a myth-busting section at the end of each chapter which we really enjoyed. It’s great fun to read and share facts and we have particular loved impressing friends and family with our facts and busting their myths! A great Christmas present for adults or kids!

Love this book so much – already got me giggling from first few pages.
by Matt Fletcher
In a world saturated with made up nonsense interesting facts resonate loudly. This book has loads of them and my kids love it. What a well written book and a superb stocking filler!

Purchased for my 10 year and he loves it. Great way to encourage reading with some hilarious science thrown in.
by Helen Frost
Absolutely enthralling! This is jam packed full of fascinating facts and dispels many urban myths to boot. The information is well organised into categories and the individual facts are explained in a shot and punchy style, ‘just right’ in terms of length and the way they’re pitched to be accessible to all.
I honestly feel like I’ve learned a lot and I’m hoping some of the information will stick so I can be ‘that person’ in pub quizzes and dinner parties (can’t say I attend many of those) to amaze my peers. I had lots of fun being educated on a wide variety of subject matter including areas I’d never have considered of interest previously. I’m really hoping this has the success it deserves so there’s a follow up. Highly recommended.
