Heโs a bright, curious child that likes to read. We bought him this book this year for his 9th birthday. He adores it. His mother said it was his favorite gift of everything he got this year. He asked if next year he could have another one. Lol. Heโs never asked for anything specifically. Hopefully they make another one. Itโs a great book. Heck, I like it, and Iโm 60 years old. Not only is the information interesting but the book itself is beautiful. Very giftable. Great purchase. Review: Great educational or coffee-table book for all ages - I was really impressed by the variety of infographics representing tons of interesting facts about the universe, life on Earth, and science in general. If you don't like reading for long periods of time, you can flip to an area of interest and visit other sections later. Valentino D'Efilippo could have used the same graphs over and over, but instead they are thoughtfully chosen and are creatively themed for the context. This book is appropriate for all ages, and while a bit of the information may be familiar from formal education, everyone can learn something from the collection of information presented.

Visual Encyclopedia of objects and events and how they relate to one another
I love how this book transforms dry, often boring facts into a visually stunning presentation. Itโs the perfect coffee table book for both children and adults. The vibrant graphics and bold colors make it a joy to flip through, even casually. Itโs also an excellent conversation starter for families who enjoy learning together. A truly beautiful and engaging book!

Great gift!
This was a gift for my super smart, inquisitive 7 yo nephew. He didnโt put the book down all day! It is filled with so many facts - itโs like a whole set of encyclopedias in one book. Amazonโs price was a fraction of the popular bookstore chain and delivery was within 3 days. I recommend this for all elementary aged kids.

I love this beautiful book!
This book is so fun to read! Itโs very aesthetically pleasing and creative. I am not gonna lie I initially grabbed this book thinking it was something for my toddler but I actually love it and the perspectives it provides. Toddler doesnโt care that much about space on account of him being 2.5 and galaxies, sizes, temperatures, etc. are not exactly comprehensible to him but when that day comes ooooh boy watch out!

Stunning visuals and fascinating facts
What a brilliant way to introduce data visualisation to kids, using incredible information on just about everything, beautifully described in clear and engaging language. Once my 12-year-old managed to wrestle the book out of my hands, he was instantly captivated. Here's what he had to say: "It's crammed with facts and figures about everything from the sea to space. I love how it presents the most obscure answers to all of the questions I never thought of asking! It makes everything so interesting and understandable by bringing everything to life in pictures. Did you know there are more Lego people than humans on the planet, and five-times as many farm animals?" Planning to buy several more as perfect birthday gifts for class-mates and school-age family.

Worth buying
I bought this for my 8 year old nephew. Prior to handing it over to him, I scanned the book and ended up reading the pages that were interesting to me. This book is a good fit for kids, high schoolers, and even adults. The facts are simple to understand with the visuals on it. The information and this book is for any age.
