What If?<\/em> from my perspective.<\/p>\nMy boys liked it, though. Enough to recommend I read it sooner rather than later. Although I’m not sure how much they appreciated the math and physics in it. I suspect they liked it because it had a lot of cartoons in it, like their previous favorites Dog Man and Captain Underpants.<\/p>\n
I see Munroe has published another book in the interim–Thing Explainer<\/em>–that I’ll watch out for. I’m also thinking about getting a copy of What If?<\/em> for that former physics teacher on my gift list. She might find it a hoot. Or not. The key in Christmas gift giving, especially to those with whom you’ll open gifts in person, is a large number of items so that, hopefully, something<\/em> will delight the recipient.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

I bought this book at Books-a-Million in June<\/a>. I haven’t made a goal of reading the books I bought in Branson this year (unlike last year<\/a>, when I read all five ending with Herschend Family Values<\/em><\/a>). But we bought a copy of this book for the boys as well, and the oldest spotted on my to-read stack (those volumes from Branson this year are still stacked on the floor atop the box of books I inherited from my most recently passed aunt) and recommended the book.<\/p>\n
