Ponder, if you will ... Why are tennis balls fuzzy? How come birds don't tip over when they sleep on telephone wires? What makes yawning contagious? Why, oh why, do roosters have to crow so early in the morning? Pop-culture guru David Feldman demystifies these topics and so much more in When Do Fish Sleep? -- the unchallenged source of answers to civilization's most baffling questions. Part of the Imponderables® series and charmingly illustrated by Kassie Schwan, When Do Fish Sleep? arms readers with the knowledge about everyday life that encyclopedias, dictionaries, and almanacs just don't have. And think about it, where else are you going to get to the bottom of why Mickey Mouse has only four fingers?… (altro)

Amusing. ( )

in the running for 'most obnoxious audiobook I've ever heard' -- the topics are interesting, but narrators scared me off completely... ( )
  lulaa | Oct 15, 2015 |
What ages would I recommend it too? Twelve and up.

Length? Each story is a few pages.

Characters? No.

Setting? Real World before 1989.

Written approximately? 1989.

Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? Ready to read more.

Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? Some answers have been updated in recent years.

Short storyline: A question is asked, and answers are given for it. Some are really good, and some are funny.

Notes for the reader: This book is a bit outdated. Aerosol cans, VHS tapes, phones, airline tickets, carbon paper.

One of the answered questions led me to ask another. How does a a one armed, or no armed, military member salute? ( )

This series has answered many questions for me and prompted many more. It's truly fascinating and well written.

When Do Fish Sleep? and Other Imponderables of Everyday Life by David Feldman

Why I picked this book up: I’ve read 3 other imponderables books and I found this one at a used bookstore and wanted more laughs and trivia that I got from the others.

Why I finished this book: It was similar to the other books and something I read and enjoyed so I finished it. This is a fun book on trips.

General Thoughts: I enjoyed his other books better than this one but it was worth the read, taught me some things and ask good questions that sometimes we don’t even think to ask. J

Rating: I’d give it a 3.5 out of 5 star rating. ( )
