Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Why would a little girl worry that Big Bird had stolen songs from Kermit the Frog?Why did she believe her father could make Goldilocks's porridge, predict traffic lights, and explain Noah's Ark with complete confidence?And why did so many ordinary moments leave her with one lingering thought:"Oh...that explains it."In this warm, humorous memoir, psychologist Dr. Minerva Spurlock revisits childhood exactly as it was experienced-not through the hindsight of adulthood, but through the earnest logic, relentless curiosity, and wonderfully literal thinking of a young girl trying to understand the world.From nursery rhymes and Bible stories to classrooms, cartoons, libraries, family traditions, and unforgettable conversations with her parents, each chapter captures the small moments that quietly shaped a lifetime of curiosity.Both funny and deeply heartfelt, Oh... That Explains It celebrates the parents who encouraged questions instead of discouraging them, the imagination that made ordinary days feel magical, and the childhood misunderstandings that eventually became the foundation of a career in psychology.Perfect for readers who enjoy humorous memoirs, nostalgic family stories, and thoughtful reflections on growing up, this first volume is a reminder that the simplest moments are often the ones that stay with us forever.
