I always look forward to digging into books that are entertaining and this one seems to fit the bill. A novel about Jason giving facts about diverse disciplines in life is amusing being a young boy and all that. Congrats to the author for sharing a novel that is informative and entertaining as well.

I am always amazed at how kids appear so much brighter than I was at their age. And here we have little nine-year-old Jason telling us what is what with the world. Stories like these are truly inspiring and bring hope to our future, knowing the younger generation will one day run our planet and hopefully save it! This review hit this book right on the mark.

Narrated by 9yo Jason, today's BOTD is a children's book that's both thought-provoking and educational. Young readers will love the new tidbits of information shared with them, while being inspired to research and share their own new learnings with others. Sounds like a great book for any home or classroom library! Thanks for the great review! :-)

The book is narrated by Jason, a nine-year-old boy, who gives facts about diverse disciplines in life. It is amazing to think years old boy could be filled with so much knowledge and understanding of life. A must-read!

It's interesting what things we can learn, and from a nine year old at that. I love how this is put together and think it could be a useful tool for educational purposes. Thanks for your review.

It's an admiring nine-year-old boy with so much knowledge about almost everything that most adults didn't know, like me. Now I know.

"The child is the father of man". This adage lives up to it fullest. The trick of a 9-year old teaching and imparting knowledge is an amazingly incredible way of reaching a vast majority of young readers. As they are the inheritors of planet earth it is absolutely apt the narrator be a young boy.

I am very sure that this book will find its way on to the bookshelves of many households where parents and children are responsible living being of this planet.

Thank you Ashok Bhaskaran for this thought provoking n thought kindling work of art.

I imagine that this child learned of these facts when he got his tablet. The introduction flows smoothly with the rest of the sample. Thanks for the review! :)
