Not just for children!

While searching for literature on this fascinating Scandinavian country, I ran into this title at my local library, so I picked it up without knowing it was supposedly meant for kids. The fact is that, if you don't mind a tone that does feel a bit funny at times (the way certain things are introduced does give it a children book feel), the book is an amazing introduction to Denmark. The book is loaded with great photos and describes the country in enough detail to get you familiarized with most of what you'd want to learn about it, as an introduction. This is not, however, a tourism guide. If that's what you're after, you're probably better off with the Eyewitness Guide for Denmark.
