Incredible book for kids and grown-ups!

This book really does have Absolutely Everything, or at least almost! My kids loved this (9 & 12 yrs - different parts, of course, but there's something for everyone), and I actually learned or was reminded of so much I'd forgotten! It's written in a way that's almost conversational and it kept us hooked with a lot of fascinating facts, but without getting tedious. The narrator's voice is lovely and warm too.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
