Content

This calendar allows children to discover new knowledge every day. Six categories offer fun and variety: The “Factual Knowledge” pages provide answers to fascinating questions like: Where do dandelion clocks come from? Why is laughter good for your health? Which special capabilities do tractors have? The flag quiz “Countries of the World” takes children on a trip around the globe. In the new “Guess Which Animal” category, children must recognise animals based on partial images. They can get creative in the “Coloring” section and solve puzzles on the “Puzzle” pages. The backside of each calendar page features instructions and solutions for the questions and puzzles. Naturalistic images and clear factual texts convey knowledge at eye level throughout the year.

About the Series

The WWW series stands out for its playful, enticing way of conveying just the information that kids want to know. Centered on who-what-how questions, the titles in the series explore subjects of great interest to young children. The thousands of questions children ask daily are answered by means of interactive elements, engaging illustrations, and age-appropriate texts. Because the lively illustrations convey so much, the books hold children's interest even without an adult to read the clear, friendly texts. WWW is ideally suited for preschool and kindergarten ages, for children 4 to 7 years old.
