Oh my God this book is incredible! Do not be fooled by the age range listed (9-12 yo), this book is highly informative for children and adults alike! Want to see or remember the biggest rivers, it's in there, check, all space missions, check, the names and shapes of all the types of clouds, check, types of fruits, flowers, birds, storms, types of dance, kinds of cheeses, trees, you name it! This book has it all! In addition, the description for each category of items is a compact nugget of superconcentrated knowledge- this book distills the essential knowledge for each thing it describes in an absolutely incredible way.

I bought two of these books. One for myself and one for my dad as a Christmas present. He loved the book as much as I did as we both

Enjoy “coffee table books” that expand our knowledge. I highly recommend for kids and adults as it’s easy to read and enjoyable to page through the pictures.

Very nice !

Colorful and informative with details of everyday knowledge even I spent a few minutes enjoying the pages.

This book has lots of different things in it each subject is one page of information to read and then pictures on the other page. So far I have read about penguins and dogs and clouds. It also includes other animal groups like cats and dinosaurs and ocean creatures and bears. It has some things about space like rockets. It has a variety of different subjects something for everyone to enjoy.

This book is beautifully illustrated with all sorts of interesting pictures of vehicles, animals, nature, music, sports, history, languages and more. Because it's heavy on visuals, it would make an interesting coffee table book or a cool gift for a curious (slightly older) kid.

This is a truly amazing book. Got it for homeschooling because of all the topics that it includes but my 6 year old has already been looking at it for hours. The illustrations are beautiful. I already know the amount my kids will learn from this are priceless.

Brilliant book for children as well as adults. I found my 5 year-old grandchildren absolutely enthralled by the diversity of information and beautifully illustrated pages. They loved the gem like pictures and looked closely to find the animals, fishes, flowers, shells, dinosaurs ( to name a few spread sheets) they were familiar with. It is very much an interactive book for this age group ( Adult/Child). Reading the descriptions will come later as they get older. A great deal of care and attention to detail has gone into this masterful Compendium, it should be reviewed and added to over the years. Well done.

A brilliant, bright, easily accessible book.

We bought this book for our son who has additional needs. He has difficulty reading but loves learning new facts. This book fits the bill perfectly. He loves it and is learning lots of new interesting things.

Great thanks
