★★☆☆☆
Not for young readers, mildly entertaining
It's just an ok book. Not great, but mildly entertaining as a bathroom reader. After reading reviews I expected more.
I am quite surprised that no one mentions the sexual nature of many of the facts in the book, or the excessive interest in the topic of genitals. It feels like it was written by a pubescent boy who just learned there was more than homework on the internet.
My kids like useless facts and we hoped this would be interesting to share but after reading about animal and insect penis', animals performing oral sex, and how frequently lions have sex during mating season, whether or not astronauts have sex in space...
I think I'll pass. Returning this book.
