Exceptional Book

This is a great book. I've read some neat interesting facts from it. It's short enough that you can find what you're looking for, but it still has so many great illistrations and details. The charts in this book are the greatest; easy to read and understand. Many pictures and stories from around the world. I would highly reccommend this book!

Large detailed diagrams, photos, realistic illustrations
