If you are familiar with the Real Kids! Real Places! mysteries series, then you know that Mimi and Papa are reoccurring characters. Papa is the cowboy pilot, and Mimi is a jet-setting mystery writer. In this almanac, they are the voices of folksy wisdom. If readers don't already know them from the mystery series, they will still find a welcome friend in the writer/researcher Mimi who loves sharing wild and crazy facts that just happen to be educational and true. And kids adore Papa, who always has something to say about everything!

Each month begins with a poem. Each day includes a fact and a funny and hilarious (and sometimes even educational!) bonus comment from Mimi and Papa.
