The Atlas Obscura: Explorer's Guide For The World's Most Adventurous Kid

Genre:  Non-Fiction
Age Recommendation:  Grade 3+

What to learn more about the world, but not just the typical run of the mill stuff?  Then this book is for you!  This book takes the reader on a journey to 47 countries and shares the little known and most surprising things about these places.  One of the many interesting places you will learn about in this book is found in Bolivia.  The Salar de Uyuni is a white plain of glittering salt from a lake that dried up thousands of years ago.  Here you will find the Hotel Luna Salada which is made of salt bricks!  This book is truly fascinating and you will be filled with wonder as you learn about these obscure places on our incredible planet.  I recommend reading this book with some technology handy because you're sure to want to look up photos of these unbelievable places and sights!
