Minecraft and Star Wars have been the most popular of the children’s non-fiction. But! an entry that I’m sure will rise through the ranks is the new Ripley’s believe it or not! These books were spawned by the manic genius of Robert L. Ripley who traveled the world in search of the strange and unusual. Before the books there were exhibition spaces or Odditoriums, still going strong with locations worldwide. Don’t have one near you? they also have travelling shows! Any ideas for your own oddity collection? Let us know in the comments.
