Maps: Aleksandra Mizielinska - Daniel Mizielinski

Product Information

Not every country in, fro example Africa or South America, is included, but, those that are, give a flavour of the variety to be found there. I bought this book for my husband, he loves maps and has travelled extensively, I know that he will love it and he will also enjoy showing it to our grandchildren. While we have a lot of books in our house, we realised recently that we didn't have a lot of reference books.

This book of maps is a visual feast for readers of all ages, with lavishly drawn illustrations from the incomparable Mizielinskis. My daughter is so happy with it, lots of friends and family have commented on how beautiful it is and the quality is amazing. The continent maps are more basic than the country maps, but still include facts like the number of countries, the area and sealife. As children, we both loved stumbling across a book too heavy to even lift, let alone open and read; a book full of facts and numbers; a book whose story you discovered through its ideas rather than its prose. Informative and inspiring, the myriad activities in this book challenge the reader to discover something new and explore their imagination to draw, decorate and design every pull-out page.Dust Jackets are not guaranteed and when still present, they will have various degrees of tear and damage. It's a celebration of the world, from its immense mountains to its tiny insects - and everything in between! From time to time, we would like to keep you up to date with news about Beyond the Stork and special offers. There is a dearth of information about some of these places (publishers tend to concentrate on what they see as the 'main' countries), particularly for young children.

Opening with an original style of contents page, consisting of a world map with countries labelled with the pages where information can be found, the atlas is divided into eight sections, looking at countries within each continent plus the Arctic and Antarctica. Used books have different signs of use and might not include supplemental materials such as CDs, Dvds, Access Codes, charts or any other extra material.This is an innovative approach to geography which will keep young and not so young, discoverers coming back again and again to pore over the quirky, delightful drawings. The amount of interesting information any child or adult can pick up from thumbing through this book is amazing in my opinon. Aleksandra Mizielinska and Daniel Mizielinski graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw in 2007. The 52 illustrated maps in this book invite the reader on a journey of exploration around the world.
