Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 14, 2003 -- East West Discovery Press is proud to announce that author Michael Smith will appear and sign his new book Questions for Kids: A book to discover a childs imagination and knowledge" at the Book Expo America (BEA), on Friday, May 30, 2003, at 1:30 p.m. The BEA Autographing session will be located in Kentia Hall in the Los Angeles Convention Center, 1201 S.

Questions for Kids is a collection of 1,000 questions for parents to ask children, 5-9 years old. Designed to inspire young minds, these fun and educational questions can serve as catalysts for thought-provoking family and classroom discussions.

As reviewed in the Readers Preference Reviews, Questions for Kids is a recommended purchase for anyone seeking a starting place for expanding their childs mind." Typical questions include:
•   Is there anything you can not buy with money?
•   Can you name some colors that are not in the rainbow?
•   What would you do if you were scared of someone at school?
•   What is the difference between a lake and an island?
•   Does their skin color make people smart or dumb?
•   What fruit has its seeds on the outside?

In the development of a child's mind, nothing is more important than lots of questions. Kids need their curiosity stimulated and their powers of deduction challenged. High-achieving adults are often those who have been asked lots of questions when they were kids. This book is drawn on my familys experiences and created to empower childrens critical thinking and to reinforce positive social and moral values," said Michael Smith, author of Questions for Kids.

The information children can learn from the questions in the book and the habits of critical thinking will give them self-assurance and confidence to problem solving. In addition, parents can learn where the child is developmentally, and the child can learn their values.

Questions for Kids is illustrated by a 10-year old artist Crystal Smith. Author Michael Smith is the author of World Trivia. It is distributed by Independent Publishers Group, Ingram and Bakers & Taylor.
