And the graphics are even more impressive in the "Wonders of World." Before reading the text, I was in awe of all the graphics- realistic, artistic and well rendered. Be sure to pay attention to all the tiny people around the landmarks; there are local people mingle with the tourists. Few landmarks even have ancient people building the wonders or hanging around with the modern tourists. Cute!

Atlas of Adventures: Wonders of the World | BookTrust

I've found myself a bit surprised by how popular non-fiction books are with the elementary/middle grade gang. What with Harry Potter and all that you sometimes overlook the interest kids have in space, geography, STEM titles, and even history and biography. So, books like this aren't merely an eat-your-spinach nod by publishers to good reading; they are popular and well liked. An inspiring book that will encourage the reader to find out more about the countries and encourage them to travel to see them for themselves. The generous size makes it great to share - excellent in the classroom. This is the debut title from Wide Eyed Editions, a new imprint of Quarto Books - I can't wait to see what comes next!" Parents in TouchAtlas of Adventures is a huge – and rather yellow – book, and it’ s one I would have read endlessly as a child... In short, it simply seems like a fun book, and you ought to be able to spend ages looking at the pictures and reading the snippets of facts, over and over again.’ I was very glad to see my two favorite places in the world—The Alhambra in Spain and the Glowworm Caves in New Zealand—make the list. Throw in the Charles Bridge in Prague, Petra, Chichen-Itza, Torres del Paine, and Ludwig’s Castle and I’m completely happy with this. The drawing for that last one is particularly well-detailed, but on the other hand the Alhambra left a bit to be desired, since I know it so well. This is exactly the kind of book that grabs my attention: a clear title (with a gorgeous font), and a beautiful visual sampling of what the reader will find inside the book. After perusing the cover, the delight continues with a beautiful world map with representative illustrations of animals or landmarks of each continent. The table of contents is divided into Continents and their respective wonders. A great complement to any world history or geography study. Atlas of Adventures: A collection of natural wonders, exciting experiences and fun festivities from the four corners of the globe Lucy Letherland's handsome Atlas of Adventures is an illustrated list of activities around the world, each inspiring, detailed scene annotated with facts.’

I was let down by just one misprint; Libya is spelt Lybia. I actually Googled this to see if it was an accepted alternate spelling but no. I'm telling the publisher and this may get corrected when the book is sold.
