This is a fascinating fact book that will engage readers with hours of exploration as they uncover unusual, amazing and odd things about the world. Presented from the perspective of KLAUS - the Knowledge Learning and Understanding System robot the information is organised in sections identified on the Contents page: Space, Humans, Earth, Science, Animals, Maths.
Each topic has a double page of facts, presented in short block so text with interesting headings and overlaying a full page background representing the topic. Some topics also include a challenge - a practical simple experiment readers can undertake. The illustrations use flat colour and stylised shapes and illustrate and often embellish the information being conveyed. My favourite page is on spiders where a number of different spiders are suspended across the paged, dangling from a line of text to look like a thread of a spider's web - very clever! The complexity if the text and information being conveyed will engage primary and secondary aged readers.
The book does not include an index, but does not warrant one - the intent of the books is not dto support in depth study or research but to excite curiosity about the world. The use of bold text iis applied to statistics and numerical information and significant events, possibly as an indicator to explore further, but this is not clear
