Seriously Surprising Stories
Seriously Surprising Stories is a fully illustrated collection of 50 unbelievable-but-true stories from history, science and nature — for kids aged 6–10 who love the words "no way, that's not real."
A bird that starts fires on purpose. A colony of caterpillars that went to court and won. An army that accidentally fought itself.
Every story is completely, verifiably real and every one is brought to life across two pages of warm watercolour art, with a hook to pull kids in and a twist that flips everything they just read. Unlike the wall-of-text fact books, this one is made to be looked at as much as read.

From the author
Written by a mum who kept getting asked “is that actually true?”
Claire Monroe homeschools two endlessly curious kids — the kind who fact-check you at dinner. This book is a collection of the true stories that stopped even them in their tracks, each one picked because it sounds impossible… and isn't.
Seriously Surprising Stories is Book 2 of the Curious Kids series, alongside The Curious Child's Encyclopedia.
