Do Elephants Jump? Paperback - 2005

by David Feldman


From the publisher

The tenth book in David Feldman's bestselling Imponderables(R) series, packed with even more answers to perplexing questions and solutions to everyday mysteries

Every day, we are confronted with innumerable small mysteries, which puzzle and confound. In his latest book, David Feldman answers 100 new and even more perplexing questions about food, popular culture, the human body, science, and more, such as:

  • Why do pianos have 88 keys?
  • Why is there no light in the freezer?
  • And, of course, Do elephants jump?

Like the other books in the Imponderables series, Do Elephants Jump? is in a question/answer format, with questions sent in by readers and fans of the series, and answers painstakingly researched and offered in Feldman's trademark humorous style.

This tenth book in the series is complete with a master index to all the Imponderables(R) books, and charming illustrations by longtime collaborator Kassie Schwan.

First line

The classic western features a lone hero entering a new town and facing a villain who threatens the peacefulness of a dusty burg.

From the rear cover

Ponder, if you will ...
Where do you find fascinating explanations
for a multitude of mysteries?
Why do pianos have 88 keys?
How does the hole get in the needle of a syringe?
Why is peanut butter sticky?

Pop culture guru David Feldman demystifies these questions and much more in Do Elephants Jump? One of the Imponderables(R) series -- the unchallenged source of answers to civilization's everyday mysteries -- and charmingly illustrated by Kassie Schwan, this book provides you with small mysteries that puzzle and amaze us.
