Description

What distinguishes a mandarin orange from a clementine, an iris from a pupil, a tornado from a cyclone, and a bee from a wasp? The difference is in the details! This contentrich illustrated extravaganza distills the distinctions between an impressive collection of pairs-from animals to food to geography and more-offering enlightening trivia, amusing tidbits, and unforgettable facts in a highly browsable format. Young readers can dip in quickly to feed their curiosity, or delve into the details and stay awhile. With a bold, graphic art style and an accessible, smart text, this miscellany collection will enrich probing minds (or is it "brains"?!).

About the Author

Reviews
"This will make a satisfying read for any child who still enjoys excessive use of the word 'why'. Let this book explain why an iris is different from a pupil and what distinguishes a wasp from a bee - we guarantee you'll learn something new, too." -- Smallish
"The non-stop trivia, presented in clear infographic-style illustration, is fairly addictive, so it is easy to devour the book in one go." -- BookTrust

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
