The Great Big Book of Everything!
A great reference to everything you should have learned in school and then some. My kids and I call it "the great big book of everything." Granted, it only supplies short squibs of each topic covered, but it is a good referential starting point. The section on Idioms alone is worth having it on your desk.

Excellent Reference Book
I was impressed when a neighbor told me how they had used this book at the dinner table as their kids were growing up. As I thumbed through hers, I could see that it had information that could be beneficial in broadening my horizons and/or explaining and clarifying the meanings of certain terms. As one example, my knowledge of mythology is very deficient. The information in this book is just what I need to help me become more proficient in this area. I got an excellent deal and have been very pleased with the book.
