Customer Reviews

fun book , very interesting

I am 10 years old and really like this book. It has snappy little short facts that you can share with your friends.

Christmas Gift for a 9 year old.

I bought this as a christmas gift for my 9 year old nephew. He loved it! not only does it educate the kids but it's fun reading.

The best gift

I bought this almanac as a gift for my 8.5-year-old grandaughter for Christmas, one of a dozen packages, and the least expensive. This is what she was most interested in. She read off-and-on for the next 3 to 4 hours that she was spent with me. Great!

Every child should have one

I highly recommend this book. I have bought the world almanac for kids 4 years in a row and it is by far the most used book in the house. I have bought multiple copies for gifts as well each year and think every child should have one. It is full of fun, information and facts and is great for bedtime reading....
