5.0 out of 5 stars A great reference book for children... and adults!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 2, 2023
A great read for its main target audience... children. But also a really nice, light but informative read for adults too. This series of books has some very high quality illustrations.

This ebook is a 'scanned' or pdf-like print.... I don't know exactly what the process is, but I do prefer this, as it maintains the layout, graphics and text as they are in the original printed book. The only downside is slightly blurry text when zoomed in... I wish they had a way to provide sharper text.
