This is N's all time favourite book! I actually bought for him (and me). Thinking he is too young for it, i had meant to keep it till he is much older. But he really liked this book so...
I bought this book so that i can get a quick overview of the World ( because my general knowledge is shamefully poor!). Well, the good thing is N really enjoys this book and actually picked up (and still learning) quite a number of things from flipping this book (i say flipping because i don't read out the wordy paragraphs to him) . For instance, he has learnt which animals can be found in which continent (he is especially good with Austrailian animals) and he now knows that Taj Mahal is in India, Great wall of China is in China, Statue of Liberty in USA etc. It is amazing how we learn new stuff each time we pick up this book! Lots of things to discover! Now i am pointing out to him the continents that each country belongs. Best of all, this book cost me a mere $6.90, talk about making my money's worth! :)
Could you share with me where you've bought this book from? On a separate note, could you send me an email, I'd like to send you a request to be a guest writer on my new website :)

Many thanks!
My boy is a lot like yours! He loves books and learns tremendous amounts from them. I love that atlas as it includes facts and monuments about specific countries. I don't have anything like that so I will try that to find that book on Amazon.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the idea!!
I hope you can find it on Amazon...strangely its quite difficult to find this book in our bookshops here too (even though i bought it here)!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteCan you share with me where i can buy this book in SG? Thanks!
Hi, I think I saw some copies at popular bookshops, try under the junior reference section. :)
ReplyDeleteHi,
