Description
Journey to the World’s Most Mysterious Places
Created by the similar team in the back of Atlas Obscura, the #1 New York Times bestseller that has over 600,000 copies in print in its first year, The Atlas Obscura Explorer’s Guide for the World’s Most Adventuruous Kid is a thrillingly imaginative expedition to 100 weird-but-true places on the earth. And just as compelling is the best way the book is structured—hopscotching from country to country not by location but by form of attraction. For instance, talk over with the web site of the Tunguska event in Siberia, where a meteor slammed into the earth in 1908—and then skip over to the Yucatan, ground zero for the ancient meteor crash that caused the mass extinction of dinosaurs. Then, whilst in Mexico, tour the fantastical Naica caves, home to crystals ten times larger than the average person—then, turn the page to Vietnam to a cave so vast you could fly a 747 through it. Illustrated in gorgeous and as it should be evocative full-color art, this book is a passport to a world of hidden possibilities.
