Synopsis
Where does pepper come from? Why do bears hibernate? And why do snails carry their houses on their backs? Because they like to go camping? Of course not! This book asks some of the things kids wonder about, and offers some really creative (but WRONG!) guesses. But you can't fool the kids in this book--"they know all the answers!, This book asks some of the things kids wonder about, and offers some really creative (but wrong) guesses. Full color., Where does pepper come from? Why do bears hibernate? And why do snails carry their houses on their backs? Because they like to go camping? Of course not This book asks some of the things kids wonder about, and offers some really creative (but WRONG ) guesses. But you can't fool the kids in this book--""they know all the answers, This question-and-answer book begins right on the cover with five silly answers (like "A pepper mill!") to the question posed in the title. The real answer comes inside on the title page. The other seven questions posed by Brigitte Raab include, "Why do bears hibernate in winter?", "Why is the sea salty?", and "Why are flamingos pink?" Within the book the answers are kept to one silly one and then, on the next spread, the actual facts. Manuela Olten illustrates both the fanciful answer (on double-page spreads) and the reality (broken up into panels) in lively, imaginative scenes. Her use of space is clever, and her depictions of various animals (from flamingos to whales) make them seem as facially and physically expressive as any human.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe

    Excellent purchase. Was able to get all three items from the one seller. Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.

    I gave 5 stars on shipping because i sent 2 separate emails + they responded with helpful info, even though it arrived late. This was a great value with free shipping + the condition is very good, better than advertised 🙂! The overall quality and appearance is excellent! I highly recommend this seller and give them 👍👍👍👍
