5.0 out of 5 stars Visual Encyclopedia of objects and events and how they relate to one another

U. · December 14, 2024

I love how this book transforms dry, often boring facts into a visually stunning presentation. It’s the perfect coffee table book for both children and adults. The vibrant graphics and bold colors make it a joy to flip through, even casually. It’s also an excellent conversation starter for families who enjoy learning together. A truly beautiful and engaging book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great educational or coffee-table book for all ages

D.L. · September 28, 2025

I was really impressed by the variety of infographics representing tons of interesting facts about the universe, life on Earth, and science in general. If you don't like reading for long periods of time, you can flip to an area of interest and visit other sections later. Valentino D'Efilippo could have used the same graphs over and over, but instead they are thoughtfully chosen and are creatively themed for the context. This book is appropriate for all ages, and while a bit of the information may be familiar from formal education, everyone can learn something from the collection of information presented.

5.0 out of 5 stars Favorite Birthday Gift

S.C.T. · July 1, 2024

We have a neighbor that we’ve been buying gifts for ever since he was born. He’s a bright, curious child that likes to read. We bought him this book this year for his 9th birthday. He adores it. His mother said it was his favorite gift of everything he got this year. He asked if next year he could have another one. Lol. He’s never asked for anything specifically. Hopefully they make another one. It’s a great book. Heck, I like it, and I’m 60 years old. Not only is the information interesting but the book itself is beautiful. Very giftable. Great purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this beautiful book!

H.B. · February 23, 2024

This book is so fun to read! It’s very aesthetically pleasing and creative. I am not gonna lie I initially grabbed this book thinking it was something for my toddler but I actually love it and the perspectives it provides. Toddler doesn’t care that much about space on account of him being 2.5 and galaxies, sizes, temperatures, etc. are not exactly comprehensible to him but when that day comes ooooh boy watch out!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great gift!

G.G. · March 22, 2025

This was a gift for my super smart, inquisitive 7 yo nephew. He didn’t put the book down all day! It is filled with so many facts - it’s like a whole set of encyclopedias in one book. Bolo’s price was a fraction of the popular bookstore chain and delivery was within 3 days. I recommend this for all elementary aged kids.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book of Facts for Visual Kids
