5.0 out of 5 stars My son loves them. April 21 2013

My son is a big fan of Weird but true. He is in 1st grade and he finished the 3 books in a weekend. Now from time to time, he mentions things he remembers from these books. He is very proud of himself in knowing things that no one else knows in the family.
5.0 out of 5 stars What beats an 11 year old glued to these books?? Feb 17 2013

My son was introduced to these book in his classroom. He was constantly coming home asking me if I knew this...and that. I inquired about what he was reading, and after his teacher told me about these "Weird but True" books I immediately went to Amazon. This set is full of very interesting facts. Many very weird, but.....TRUE~! I love how the facts are short and sweet, not paragraphs of info for a younger reader to become lost and bored with. Many of the facts offer a few pictures too. With all the exposure to technology and my son's love of it all, it thrilled me to see him sit at the table for a few hours with his nose in these books. Great find!!
