The Kleins, who have written a number of books for young readers, now live in Seattle.Book Reviews:"Certainly an eye-opening and thought-provoking introduction to how to use one power of reason in discriminating sense from nonsense." Booklist"This is a well-written, interesting, easy-to-read book. I recommend it for middle-school students and adults." Science Teacher, February 1986 "An articulate introduction to the art of logical thinkingtressing at all times the value of a questioning mind, the authors cannily use statistical subjects that are of interest to young people, such as the accident rates of teenage drivers venhanded in its treatment of issues, the book is outstanding in its clarity, sometimes surprising in its conclusions, and fascinating." The Horn BookHow Do You Know It True? has joined my short list of hallmark children literature titles." Linda Winkler, St. Petersburg Times
