Conversation Sparks

ebook
Jump-start any conversation with this "witty book . . . for anyone who likes to show off random bits of knowledge at the dinner table" (Men's Journal).
Did you know that "Karaoke" is Japanese for "Empty orchestra"? Or that all snowflakes have six sides? With this collection of over 350 fascinating, little-known facts, you'll be ready to get any conversation off and running. Hand-drawn illustrations and a charming conversationalist add personality to everything from the number of shipping containers lost at sea (about one per hour!) to now-retired Twinkie flavors (banana cream).
Who knew that any month beginning on a Sunday will have a Friday the 13th? Or that there are more cell phones in the world than toothbrushes? Engaging and addictive, this is trivia with character.
