These are just a few of the questions that the young protagonist in this story asks out loud. To find the answers, this book will take readers through black holes, travelling at the speed of sound, going in orbit and floating on paper boats, discovering the easy-to-understand yet fascinating principles of physics.

There Are No Ants in This Book

by Rosemary Mosco
illustrated by Anna Pirolli

This hilarious meta picture book shows us that ants aren't so bad. In fact, they're pretty amazing, and with their humongous families, they might turn your picnic into a party! Nothing can ruin a picnic faster than a bunch of ants. It's a good thing there are no ants in this book . . . well, maybe there's only one. Or two. . . . Or ten?? Maybe it's not so bad. Ants are kind of cool, after all — especially the ones with amazing butts, like the Acrobat Ant that waves its back end around to scare off enemies. Or the Slender Leaf Ant that can glide through the air. Or the Dinosaur Ant, which is the biggest ant in the world! Okay, so a picnic with ants is actually lots of fun! But what if an anteater also wants to join the picnic?
