Bombo, an inquisitive young beetle, discovers her “superpower” and then sets out on an adventure to discover how she got this ability. "Bombo's Big Question" is a fable about the adventures of a beetle named Bombo who is in search of an explanation for what she sees as her "superpower." It's an allegory that intends to promote curiosity, critical thinking, and natural explanations. Ultimately Bombo does find a good answer and one that goes beyond a mechanistic explanation in that the answer connects her personally to the rest of life.
