One Million Things

This is a FABULOUS book! I bought a copy for every student in my class. I think every child and adult should own a copy of this book. It is beautiful and interesting. Even children who hate reading won't be able to pull themselves away.

exceptional learning book

i bought this for my 8 yr old niece for Christmas. She loved it. Each time I have been at her house she has had her nose in this book. And she's not just browsing, she's learning. She has told me all kinds of interesting facts, some of which I didn't know.

Fascinating!

I gave this book to my 10 year old nephew for Christmas. After he opened it, he kept looking and looking at it saying "this is really cool." The illustrations are beautiful, and the book has a little of every topic from science to music to art and history. This book will be a reference for him through at least middle school. I highly recommend it to anyone buying for children 8 years and up.

Excellent book that promotes learning

This is a great book that is great for browsing and learning. It is not a comprehensive encyclopedia, but I highly recommend it even if you have other encyclopedia books. The cover has a mirror-like surface that compels children to want to read it and learn. Great illustrations and good content. I like almost everything that I've seen from DK publishing. We use it for homeschooling but adults will also enjoy browsing it too.
