The little boy who asked too many questions
A book for children... a story for everyone!
Hugo asks tons of questions, but it's hard to find the answers! And that gets on people's nerves... It's while eating an ice cream that he's suddenly plunged into an adventure where he becomes an explorer, and then a scientist. He'll discover that the world becomes more fascinating and wonderful than ever when we try to understand it better.
The "steps" described by the explorer in the story are what we call the scientific method. For many people, science is something vague and incomprehensible, whereas it's simply a process: be observant, formulate your questions, formulate hypotheses, design experiments and analyze the results.
Unfortunately, children are too often taught what to think rather than how to think: yet studies on the subject show that young people become better at solving problems if they are told how to do it. In short, learning the scientific method means learning how to think well.
