Seven Natural Wonders of Europe

By Michael Woods, Mary B. Woods, Dashka Slater

Book Overview

Without any human influence, nature has created extraordinary wonders - from majestic mountains and bubbling volcanoes to amazing plants and animals. These wonders are found across all the continents and oceans of this planet. In a tour of the seven greatest wonders of Europe, we'll encounter Iceland, a land full of volcanoes. One of them erupted in 1963, creating a brand-new island. We'll also see Mons Klint, a giant white cliff in Denmark, and the Jurassic Coast of Britain with its 185 million years of Earth's history. Other European wonders are full of mystery: Does a monster really live in Scotland's Loch Ness? What other natural wonders does Europe hold? to find out, we'll explore snow-covered mountains, a dark forest, and magical fjords in fascinating detail.
