I am a huge fan of this non-fiction book! It was really fascinating to see how movie makers went about performing special effects and there were plenty of facts in there (as well as humour!). I learnt a lot from it and would recommend it to anyone who likes a laugh. I think its a great way to deliver fact and information through jokes and illustrations!
