(Written by a 10 yr old reader)“National Geographic Kids Almanac 2016” claims to have “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Everything!!” I’m not sure if it truly has everything about everything, but it does have a lot!The book has 351 pages of amazing facts and places, and it has a fancy cover. The book is divided into ten sections. Here is an example of one of the sections – “Your World 2016” talks about new inventions, cool stuff about the world, and about new events that will be happening in 2016.Almanac 2016 also has high quality photos that catch every reader’s eye. The book has wonderful photos of buildings, animals, and places. The photos make reading the book much more fun.The book has a great section for kids of all ages - a games section. In the games section, kids are challenged by unscrambling words, finding their way out of a maze, and searching for hidden things that are wrong in the scene. Children can also have some fun with Mad-Libs (which they call Funny Fill-In), jokes, a comic, and funny pictures.Almanac 2016 has an awesome section for animal lovers, it’s called Amazing Animals!! The section has outstanding pictures of animals, and it also shows information about them. The book even teaches you, “How to Speak Dog”!! You can read about dogs who work for the government and their jobs. You can read about so many different animals in the Amazing Animals section.The next section the book has is called Super Science. Super Science has a lot of cool stuff like new crazy inventions, decoding dreams, and “16 Heart Pumping Facts”! You can also learn about the Big Bang, the planets, and other space stuff. They also talk about the human body and life, and it has a quiz at the end.
This is a great book for tweens and teens, and probably good for people older and possibly younger, too. It is what I’d call a ‘toilet book’ – I better quickly explain that! It has short one and two page articles, all heavily and attractively illustrated in color, making it good for browsing and occasional/brief reading.I got a copy for my daughter (her review is somewhere here too). I wanted something to offer her as an alternative to the ‘screen time’ that fills much of her days, and something as a distraction for some long flights we were about to take together.To my delight – to our shared delight – the book quickly captured and held her interest, and it was a struggle to keep Anna from reading the whole thing before our travels commenced. Best of all (from my perspective as a parent) it was full of ‘useful’ information that encouraged her to learn new facts, and made the act/art of learning into an interesting and fun thing. I found myself picking up the book, reading it too, and simultaneously enjoying it and learning from it also.My sense is that it is more than a ‘read once then throwaway’ book. Because it has so many facts, it can be read many times and one invariably uncovers things one had previously overlooked or forgotten. That also means that even if your child skims through it quickly, they can still return back to it and keep rereading it – there are many hours of learning and, most of all, fun, between its covers. But, a word of warning to parents : There’s a danger your children will start asking you questions from the book’s material, and expect you to know the answers. Your carefully protected reputation for knowing everything will be at risk!
