An odd mix of story, facts, crafts, and quizzes on popular topics ranging from mummies to dinosaurs to rockets. Book-reading Dog and clueless cousin Wolf (Wolf and Dog) argue about these subjects and more throughout four topical chapters. The information is interesting, the tidy spot- and full-page art excellent. However, the quizzes and activities are either silly or irrelevant, and the whole feels disjointed.
