 You might ask yourself, what's this thing called the Great Big Book Of Everything? Well, as the title suggests, it's the great big book of everything you need and want to know.

 The reason I decieded to write all this was because I realized there are millions of things I don't know about. And things I DON'T know about that I NEED to know about before going out into the Real World.

 First, I will refrain from calling the world of adulthood REAL WORLD. In fact, let's just call it the World of Adulthood.
If you're reading this, and are any age under sixteen, I don't really care. You're gonna be an adult eventually.

 Second. Why d'you need to know these things? Because you, like the rest of humanity, need to grow. Not just physically. But your brain must grow as well.
Right now, I want you to go measure your head. Yes, I really want you to.
Because after you're done reading the Great Big Book Of Everything, your head will have grown. Or rather, the stuff in it will have developed.

 Third. (Question asked by Brenna) Why do I need to become an adult, anyway?
BECAUSE IT'S PART OF THE GREAT PLAN! What is this Great Plan?
Let me tell you a little story.

 Once upon a time, there was a great and powerful man. He was in charge of the entire Universe, and everything inside of it. He was the Ruler of the Universe, more commonly known as God.
One day, The Ruler of the Universe said to himself, "Hmmm. I've created a bunch of little heavenly spheres, and one good enough to support life. I think I shall make life out of these little bits of intelligences floating around."
And so, there was THE HUMAN BODY. This body was designed to grow bigger, stronger, and more...older and mature. The same with the brain tht God supplied you with. Yet, in his mercy and love, he made it really simple for the slush of the human race. 
Follow the rules. Learn everything there is to learn. Don't be a slush.
But humanity (which is a bit dissapointing) only did these things for a few years. Then came the dawn of the 20th century. Then things got sloppy.

 There's the story. If you look back through the centuries, you'll see that kids were adults at age SEVEN! And these kids did more than mow the lawn, clean their room, or wash dishes. They did all that and fed animals, bathed younger siblings, helped the mother and father around the house, help with the field work, made whole meals, were apprentaced as young as age five to other people in far away lands, away from home for the rest of their lives. 
Let's get down to it. YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO ALL HUMANITY.
Does that give you any insentive?

 Now...to The Great Big Book Of Everything!
