Feldman has tirelessly searched for the answers to those mystifying questions that frequently give people pause. Organized in a question-and-answer format, this three-in-one collection by the author who knows and reveals such vital information as the moment when a kid turns into a goat is a must-have for anyone who's searching for solutions to life's mysteries.
