About the Author:

Jack Myers, Ph.D., (1913-2006) was the senior science editor of Highlights for Children, the nation's largest-circulation magazine for young readers. He was recruited for the job in the late 1950s by his parents, Highlights Founders Dr. Gary Cleveland Myers and Caroline Clark Myers. For more than forty years, he delighted curious kids with his answers to their science questions and with his many articles about true science discoveries. In addition to his role at Highlights, Jack Myers was a scientist at the University of Texas at Austin, where at the time of his death, he was professor emeritus of zoology. He was a member of the National Academy of Sciences.

From Publishers Weekly:

Why do you burp? Why don't marbles bounce? For over 30 years, children have been asking Highlights science editor Jack Myers questions about everything under, about and beyond the sun. Along with Myers's good-humored, easy-to-understand answers and boisterous, cartoonish illustrations from a variety of illustrators, these queries have been gathered together in Highlights Book of Science Questions That Children Ask (Boyds Mills, $10.95, ages 6-10 ISBN 1-56397-478-9 Sept.).
