The tenth book in David Feldman's bestselling Imponderables(R) series, packed with even more answers to perplexing questions and solutions to everyday mysteries
Every day, we are confronted with innumerable small mysteries, which puzzle and confound. In his latest book, David Feldman answers 100 new and even more perplexing questions about food, popular culture, the human body, science, and more, such as:
- Why do pianos have 88 keys?
- Why is there no light in the freezer?
- And, of course, Do elephants jump?
Like the other books in the Imponderables series, Do Elephants Jump? is in a question/answer format, with questions sent in by readers and fans of the series, and answers painstakingly researched and offered in Feldman's trademark humorous style.
This tenth book in the series is complete with a master index to all the Imponderables(R) books, and charming illustrations by longtime collaborator Kassie Schwan.
