The Secret Knowledge of Grown-Ups by David Wisniewski

Fave thing about the book is the cover which has been made to look like a classified manila envelope.  OK this book is hands down ridiculous!  Why should kids drink milk?  To stop our atomic cows from exploding.  Apparently there are 6 giant radioactive cows in America that provide all the milk for the country.  If we stopped drinking milk there the cows would get bigger until there was a nuclear meltdown.
