Curiosity is the engine behind The Ultimate Fact Book, a general-knowledge encyclopedia gathering surprising detail about living creatures, plant life, the human body and the natural world into one illustrated volume.
Mary-Jane Wilkins arranges the material in browsable topic sections, pairing short explanations with colour artwork so a young reader can dip in at any page or follow a subject from start to finish. The mix of clear writing and visual support suits school projects, quiet independent reading and the questions that come up at the dinner table.
Quick facts for buyers:
• Covers human biology, wildlife, plant life and natural phenomena in one reference
• Topics are grouped so a child can browse without an adult guiding every page
• Illustrations sit alongside short explanations rather than replacing them
• Useful for homework research as well as casual fact-hunting
A sound pick for primary and lower-secondary readers, curious fact collectors, and parents or teachers building a home or classroom shelf, available at Boipoka.
