Archie was a rhino with a LOT of questions.
Sometimes when he was finding answers, Archie made a little bit of mess …
Why does toast make crumbs?
Why is milk splashy?
Why's cereal so soggy, Dad?
Summary From Little Tiger Press
Archie is a rhino with a LOT of questions. He wants to know everything: “Why glue is so sticky? Why do dropped things go SMASH?” If only finding out was a little less messy… 
Everybody’s much-loved rhino returns in this brand-new sequel to No! from the wonderful Tracey Corderoy (Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam and The Little White Owl) and award-winning Tim Warnes (I Don’t Want to Go to Bed). Brimming with gorgeous illustrations, this warm, funny book is guaranteed to become a firm favourite. A must for all families with curious toddlers who just love to ask “WHY?”
*****
This picture book will strike a chord with anyone who knows an inquisitive toddler. Archie has questions for every occasion and Mum and Dad find the whole thing pretty tiring. Then they take Archie to the museum, where he asks so many
questions that he manages to wear himself out. Mum and Dad begin to hope that he might have run out of questions altogether, but their hopes are soon dashed – in a comical conclusion.
Adults will enjoy the questions that make Mum and Dad squirm, while toddlers will love Tim Warnes's detailed illustrations. There's plenty to talk about here, from the messy breakfast table to the space section of the museum, and probably a few questions to be answered, too! Don't miss this book!
