You might have heard the word 'atlas' and thought, isn't that a dusty old book with maps and stuff? But hang on – this is a totally WEIRD atlas: a curious collection of the strangest places on Earth! Such as:
A BOILING RIVER – this river in Peru reaches temperatures of 100 degrees celsius!
A PIRATE CEMETERY – located in Madagascar, this was the final resting place of many notorious pirates from the 16th and 17th centuries
A GIGANTIC MIRROR - the salt flats in Bolivia form a huge reflective surface that's visible from space!
A MAGNETIC MOUNTAIN – this slope in Australia has a mysterious force that causes cars to roll up instead of down.
As you journey through this book, you'll discover some of the most weird and wonderful places on every continent. And sometimes, you'll travel back in time to discover the strange histories of these locations.
With hilarious comic-strip illustrations throughout, this quirky guide to the strangest stuff on Earth will surprise and delight curious kids aged 6+.
