The Wonders of Nature: Discover the Incredible Stories of the Natural World (DK Children's Anthologies)

The most gorgeous book! So magical and detailed. Keeps the little curious minds spinning

Such a pretty book! My kids have really enjoyed learning the different animals.

I bought this for Christmas for my newborn son to start his collection of books but when it arrived I was BLOWN AWAY by the quality and craftsmanship. Not even to mention how gorgeous the illustrations were. The book itself is big, heavy and guilded in gold. It’s beautiful. The pages are beautifully done and they chose some amazing things to write about. I was so blown away by this book I decided to give it to my teenage daughter instead. As a teen it could go either way of course. She’d either love it or eye roll a thanks and never see it again. Not only was she just as entranced by it as I was but she’s chosen to bring it to show other family and friends when we visit others. She’s spouted off facts even I had no idea about! “Mom did you ever hear about the DRAGON TREE??? It BLEEDS when you cut it!!!” Thank you for creating a book so different and magical that it keeps everyone entertained no matter what the age! Will be buying the others for sure!

I read this book every night with my 8 year old. I LOVE this series, but I loved space and ocean more. It may just be my preference, so I still have 5 stars. My son and I are going through every book in the series, and he (and I!) love it. I got National Geographic too, and that didn’t stand a chance against this series. Great photos, easy to read and understand. Chef’s kiss.

Beautiful illustration

I love just about everything produced by DK, but this Anthology series is a real stand-out. Contrary to the typical DK format - white background with lots of photos or illustrations - this artistic book has a single topic and artwork for each page. The cover is richly embossed. The quality is exceptional for the price. Buy the whole series for a beautiful collection!

This book (and the others) have been on my list for a long time. I was so happy to see it on sale, so I grabbed it and couldn’t be happier. The illustrations are beautiful and it’s filled with information. I can’t wait to get the rest and finish the collection.

Awesome book that has rich content. Got it for the thx giving and my son loves it

A beautiful book ! We read a few pages before bed , 8 year old loves it . We have 3 in the series . A wonderful gift !

The book is good for 10 y kids or younger if he/she has interest in nature. It has tons of knowledge and covers one topic of class 12 that is animal world. As a teacher I can assure u the main problem teaching with 11 and 12 students is their lack of knowledge or knowledge limited to school books, which seriously lack in knowledge and also are out dated… It’s good to develop reading knowledge and have wide knowledge from early age… The book is good and has ton of info…

My children and I love this book, amazing pictures it’s great read together. Really fast delivery and perfect package. Absolutely Recommend!

I love this book. We got "An Anthology of Intriguing Animals " last year and loved its classy feel and fascinating facts. We were really looking forward to this being released and haven't been disappointed. It is simply stunning - gorgeous artwork, beautifully produced and well made with quality pages that are gold edged. This gives it a very expensive and sophisticated look. It looks great on our coffee table and has been commented on by many visitors. The writing is very engaging - full of fascinating facts and insights presented in bite sized chunks. Although aimed and written for children readers in our house of all ages have enjoyed reading this and dipping in and out of it. I am 43 and have learned so much!! Wonders of Nature is a good title as the subject matter is broad, more so than most other nature books. In addition to plants and animals this book covers rocks and minerals and microscopic life. These would not always be subjects to grab my attention but the writing is excellent and fascinating. Who knew that microscopic water bears are everywhere and are the toughest animals of all - being able to survive being frozen, boiled, show and starved of water?! When I bought further copies in waterstones ( sorry, amazon) the lady at the till said that this was her favourite book of the year and I can see why. I have stocked up for Christmas presents and for myself and know that I have secured myself a great gift that will be well loved for years

My 8 year old daughter loved the book. Beautiful book and easy to read
