This visually stunning set answers questions such as "Why do astronauts learn wilderness survival skills?" and "Were the first computer bugs actual insects?" with the help of vibrant, infographic-style illustrations.

Featuring no fewer than 100 bite-sized topics per book, readers just won't be able to keep their favourite facts to themselves! With Quicklinks to specially selected websites too, readers can explore even more about the topics that fascinate them.

We take more than 20,000 breaths a day. Each one is packed with scents and aromas that give us essential information about our surroundings. Our sense of smell warns us of dangers, such as fire or gas, tells us what foods are safest to eat, and can even help predict the weather.

I LOVE THESE BOOKS!!!! How exciting to learn so much about us and the world around us!

Most of the world’s oxygen is made in the ocean by plants and other living things. But one species of phytoplankton (a plant-like bacteria) called prochlorococcus makes so much oxygen that it’s responsible for the equivalent of one in every five breaths we take. It’s tiny – 100 laid end to end are the width of a single human hair – but it is one the most numerous life forms on Earth. It’s estimated there are up to 3 octillion world wide. That’s 3 followed by 27 zeros!

Fish have been know to play pranks on each other. Scientists believe they do this for entertainment just like humans. One species of fish was observed pranking eachother by replacing sand into a freshly dig hole and moving discarded shells to look like a predator waiting to attack.

These facts are unbelievable!

There's plenty more to be found inside 100 things to know about Oceans!

Fiver Friday with a difference.

For £5 you can grab yourself a mystery box. All I need to know is age and interests of the child you are buying the box for.

What will be inside yours?
