From Hong Kong to Reykjavík, Ulaanbaatar to New York City, enjoy a lush and unexpected journey around the world to discover what makes each place unique. Sleepy sloths, colorful cows, staggering skylines, terrible traffic—countless surprises await! All you need is a good guide and a little curiosity . . . so, what are you waiting for? Let’s go! From award-winning author and illustrator Marc Martin comes a quirky, fact-filled adventure for curious globe-trotters, young and old.
Beautiful, informational, and fun! This isn't the kind of book you pick up and read through--it's the kind of book you read a little at a time, slowly soaking it up. My daughter likes to read just one page at a time, if we're sitting down together, or flip through the pictures by herself, occasionally asking questions or wanting me to read a caption to her. More than any specific factoids, I feel like the message she's getting is that the world is a big, wild, wonderful place, full of interesting things, just waiting for her to discover it all.
