The Visual Encyclopedia

Over 1,500 photographs and diagrams carry the reader through science, nature, history, technology and culture in a single general reference volume. Topics are arranged as compact visual spreads, with clear labels and short factual captions, so a question can be answered in a minute or followed further across linked subject areas. The format suits readers who learn from pictures as much as from text, and the breadth makes it useful for school assignments as well as idle curiosity. For the shelf: • More than 400 subject areas gathered in one reference volume • Over 1,500 images support the written explanations on every spread • Captions kept short enough for independent reading from around age eight • Cross-subject layout helps connect science, history and culture Suited to families, classrooms and homework desks, published by DK Publishing and available at Boipoka.
