Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

You've got questions, right? We're talking about huge questions! Mind-bending, head-scratching, keenly curious queries. Like ... what if we could dig a hole through the centre of Earth? What's the deal with the Bermuda Triangle? Is your houseplant listening to you? And will we ever be able to talk to animals?

Get the scoop on these questions and more—with whimsy, detail, and tons of awesome stats. And when the answer isn't so black and white, we'll dig into the possibilities, analyse what-ifs, and give plenty of science to back it all up.

What kind of stuff is in this book? Super cool stuff like cave paintings, Hershey's Kisses, sloths, spaghettification, robots, moai, money, mermaids, flying cars, pyramids, hiccups, dreams, and Amelia Earhart.

Anything else? We're just getting started! Emojis, Atlantis, zebras, UFOs, astronauts, ghosts, dogs, a really, really old tree, and way more. Plus, plenty of far-out fun facts and awesome photos.

Will my eyeballs fall out if I sneeze with my eyes open while holding this book? Nope!
