Why Don’t Penguins’ Feet Freeze? - Various contributors from the New Scientist magazine

If you or even a 4 year old (eternal fans of Why…. conversations) has ever posed that question, this book should keep you occupied, and even provide answers to strange queries.
I remember reading my Dad’s New Scientist when I was younger, and making myself reading the ‘normal’ topics, then gleefully skipping the jobs section, to get to the sweet spot of NS - the Last Word column, strangely enough on the last page. A bit like reading the news stories before allowing yourself the light relief of a comic strip If you don’t get the idea of the book from the above description, it probably isn’t for you Oh, and thanks Dad for the intro to the magazine, and sending one over recently.
