Atlas of Adventures: A collection of natural wonders, exciting experiences and fun festivities from the four corners of the globe.

Great book with lovely illustrations. Bought it for 5 year old daughter and like it some much, have also got it for nephew and several of our daughter's friends. Nice illustrated way to explore worldwide geography and culture.

Purchased as gift for young reader who loves to read about everything. He really enjoyed this one. Easy to read. He Loves facts and remembers what he has read

I am a huge explorer of the planet and want to pass my love of travel to my nieces and god children...this was a real winner what a fantastic book full of facts and they were so excited to see where aunty had travelled to and ask me questions.

This is a lovely book that is absolutely fascinating my son who is in year 3. He is a very confident reader and reads one double spread a day, always coming back to me with something that captured his imagination. What I would note is that this publication is more focused on culture/unusual customs grouped by continent, rather than on strict geography.

beautiful big illustrations full of fun and detail, this is really a book that kids can get lost in. Ideal for reading together, it is a perfect bedtime book

Amazing delivery and a lovely resource for children

I bought this for my almost 8 year old daughter. I know she will love it - it's beautifully illustrated and full of interesting facts. It's quite a lot bigger than I realised it would be which is a good thing!

My 5 year old son loves this book and it’s so big and full of wonderful pictures . Great for his little mind .

I am teaching an "Around the World" class at our homeschool coop, where I teach 5-7 year olds about the continents and oceans. After getting this book out of the library, I liked it so much that I purchased a copy. The bright pictures and informative text give lots of options - you can skip some of the captions for the younger crowd, use the illustrations to get the kids talking and noticing details, or read everything for a small, focused group. I like the variety of places featured, and the colorful illustrations. I will note that the features include Carnival in Brazil, with some women that are rather scandalously dressed for a kids' book. My husband hails from the Caribbean, and I am familiar and comfortable with Carnival culture and my kids have experienced it firsthand, so we can talk about how things can be considered culturally appropriate for one place and time even if they would be a bit much for another place or people. Depending on your comfort level, you might want to skip this page, or just know about it ahead of time. Many of the pages offer great opportunities for further learning. One page features New Zealand's Haka, and there are some great, kid appropriate videos on YouTube of the haka that are truly spine-tingling. Video or images of Monarch butterfly migration are pretty incredible, as well. The book featured a number of places/traditions I wasn't familiar with, and it has been fun to learn more along with the kids. This certainly isn't a stand-alone geography book, but it is a great supplement. The detailed images provide lots of material for generating interest with your kids and planting a seed for them to want to learn more.

Beautiful compilation...

The book arrived damaged at one corner, which was disappointing. I’m assuming it happened during shipping due to the size of the book and bad packaging. It was in a large box with just a piece of scrunched up paper to protect it. The book itself is lovely. Beautiful illustrations and interesting information about places around the world.

My girlfriend and I came across this book at a store on our travels and didn't have room in our luggage for a hardcover book, but I went and bought it the day we got home. That's how captivating it was! This book brought me back to the oversized hardcover picture books I read as a kid. The illustration is absolutely wonderful, imaginative, funny, and if full of subtle details that keep your eyes moving across every composition. And as an avid traveler and geography geek, this book covers so many of the world's most unique experiences and places. Whether you've experienced some of these places or just dream about them, you'll feel that youthful sense of wonder and adventure from this book. Oh and if you think it's fun for adults, wait til anyone under the age of 12 gets their hands on it. I have a 2.5 year old nephew who is picking up new words every day, and this book is PERFECT for him to learn with. He is entranced by all the colors, architecture, animals, vehicles and cultural objects. He is learning what different landscapes look like, the names of countries, exotic animals, unique recreation activities, etc. I hope this goes on to inspire his own curiosity about the world! You'll be amazed how a book like this can stick with a child for their whole life. I think this is one book worth owning for anyone who loves adventure, young and old. Parents, take a break from digital entertainment and add this book to your little one's library! It will grow with them for sure!
