Long description
The world's most random encyclopedia, is now in paperback. Once you pick me up, you won't want to put me down...I'm an encyclopedia, but not as you know it. Big books with facts are boring - I'm not. I'm more like a computer game than a book, crammed with funky pages and cartoons. Forget A-Z, just follow my lead and you'll be amazed where you end up! Was Beethoven a punk? Why is 10 to the power of 100 called a googol? How are smelly feet connected to nuclear weapons? I've got it all covered. Read me in bed, read me on the bus, or even in the loo! Just pick me up - go on. I'm exciting, I'm addictive - I'm unputdownable! Curious? Try me!
Review
'Who knew that there are 2 billion people sleeping right now? We didn't until we read PICK ME UP. This book is amazing and so much fun. Even for big kids like us!' Courtney Cox and David Arquette 'Designed for anyone used to getting information from the Internet, this is a book with a 'miscellany' approach.' The Guardian
