Beautiful made books in quality, art, and text.
These book series are beautifully made. The artwork is as educational as the words. I have children up to 16 years old who enjoy these books. They are easy reading, but have key facts that encourages deeper learning or research.

Beautiful and Amazingly Informative
My children absolutely love the books in this series, especially this book. Every night my son and daughter ask us to read a few pages to them and to research the specific topics for further information. This book has amazing quality; from the pictures to the cover art. We already have 5 books in this series and expect to purchase more.

Parents will want to read too
Every DK book we own is well worth the money. We've owned this book for years and read it at least once a year. My 3rd grader and myself find all the facts so interesting.

Bello! Ma non in condizioni perfette
Libro molto bello, preso per un bambino a cui far crescere la curiosità nel conoscere le cose. Peccato che sia arrivato non in condizioni perfette (angoli lievemente usurati): per questo le 4 stelle.

Beautiful book
This series of “anthology” books are so beautiful. My daughter (9) has been collecting them for a few years and absolutely loves them. She sits and read for hours, looking at the beautiful pictures and sharing interesting facts. They are not super difficult reads, but so many cool facts. And sometimes just having it be “beautiful” makes it feel more special and like a real treasure to sit and experience.
