"Everything Under the Sun is a beautifully illustrated book full of questions that young readers will likely have asked aloud or wondered to themselves before. ... I love that this book has a calendar layout, one question per day of the year. Of course you can read it in any order you like, but this would also make for a fun family tradition."
