Why doesn’t the moon fall down?

Norwegian title: Hvorfor ramler ikke månen ned?

Illustrated by Leonard Furuberg

We’re back with 52 new questions children often ask, this time about science. How much does a cloud weigh? Who invented the internet? How many trees do we need to make one toilet roll? And why does the slice of bread with Nutella always fall with the Nutella-side down? Dennis Siva answers these questions, and 48 others. Siva is a biologist and known from the children’s science programme Newton, and is skilled at explaining science to kids.

Why doesn’t the moon fall down? is educational, easy to understand and humorously illustrated, and a perfect for beginning to teach science to children aged 6–9.

The entire series is illustrated by Leonard Furuberg, who has a playful and accessible style reminiscent of Pixar/ Disney animation.
