Not necessarily kid friendly.
Disappointed because the majority of the book is done beautifully but there are a few pages with things I just don’t find as kid friendly.

Meh
Reads more like a hipster artist sketchbook than a book of facts. The handwriting isn’t that easy for kids. It’s okay but I would have never paid this much for this. It’s more like here are pictures showing what comes to mind to the illustrator when he thinks of a country and it’s atmosphere. There aren’t that many countries represented, either! If there had been more than a handful it would have rated a little higher.

Excellent intro to the world!
I travel a lot and wanted a way to briefly share some of my experiences with my great-nieces. It's a really tall and wide book, with every page covered in drawings and words telling about each place. The locations included are Antarctica, Alice Springs (Australia), Hong Kong, Tokyo, Ulaahbaatar (Mongolia!), New Delhi, Moscow, Cairo, Paris, Rekjavik (Iceland), New York City, Galapagos Islands, Amazon Rainforest, Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), and Cape Town (South Africa). I love that these are not just the typical tourist locations and find that I still need to go to 7 of the 15 locales!! Time to start planning my next adventure!!

This book is awesome
I collect children’s books for my son’s library and he is *obsessed* with atlas books and maps. If you’re into Maps (the children’s book), This Is How We Do It, or any of the Atlas of Adventures series, this book is a natural addition filled with amazing, beautiful art and engaging humorous captions and facts. I’m glad to have made the purchase, and I disagree with the other reviewer who claimed there were “too adult” things in this book. We live in New Orleans and see some... things... that I have to explain sometimes, and if you really are uncomfortable with your child seeing images of shisha smoking, I suggest never traveling outside of the home and avoiding all PG13 Television.

I’m 36 and I LOVE this book!
This book is amazing!!! It doesnt really “read” per se, it’s more of a point and state type of book. The illustrations are beautiful and the locations featured are unique and informative. I bought this for my 4 month old (a little early obviously) and can’t wait to read it to him when he can really see and talk about what is in the book. Also, the book is large (remote for scale). Just buy it, you won’t regret it!

A MUST BUY
This is the BEST book. A must have for families with toddlers. Our son is picking up words like a sponge and books with lots of people and things are so helpful in helping him experience the world from our home.The illustrations are unbelievably beautiful.I will admit that even if my son doesnt love this book- I'm keeping it for myself and buying this for all our family & friends.

Busy and beautiful, but not very informative
Bought this for my 5 yo as a Christmas gift. He enjoys poring over busy books and it seemed up his alley. It did not disappoint, but it's not one of his favorites either. I think the art, which is like watercolor painting, is not as engaging to him. There is not much writing in the book either, mostly just identifying what a picture is, without giving much detail. I bought this for $8 and change and, at that price point, would definitely get again or consider gifting.

Hi! That tiny spot in the universe
I pick up the book today. The first page I read is Hong Kong cause I was born here. Good depiction! Since I was a child I think that Hong Kong is just a big market, whether I like it or not, and everything here is about goods and their transport. The picture reminds me how good a 'red-white-blue bag' is in representing Hong Kong. I think the author has really 'digests' the place before he writes it.This is a book of arts for adults ( I can't say for the children cause I am not one) It touches more than it teaches. It reminds me of how much I love the place where I live.I dislike encyclopedic. The title 'Everything and Everywhere' deters me from buying the book even for children. I first met the book's earlier Chinese version 'Lots' in Muji (children book section) It's a pity that people, especially marketing people think that illustrated books are just for children.I like the book's cover, trying to put everything and everywhere there, and I come up with this review's headline.

Same as Lots book
Wonderful book but please note, this is the same as the “Lots” book. I bought this thinking it was a similar book by the same author but it’s just been renamed and new embossed cover. Do buy it though as it’s gorgeous but not if you already have Lots!!

Fun (if facts are a little off)
Our 5 year old loves this book especially because it follows a map showing spots around the world. Some "facts" are a bit suspect (e.g. animals in Cape Town, Tokyo all about vending machines)

Exactly the same as a book named Lots, by the same author.
I bought Lots a couple of years ago and it was beautiful. I bought this for my son for Christmas thinking it was a different book, or at least complimentary to the first- only to find out today that it’s the exact same book under a different name. I feel this should be clearer. Don’t buy the two together!

Lovely Book for an almost 7 year old
This book is lovely and has lots of really interesting details about different parts of the world without being boring. I have had a look through it before giving it to my Granddaughter.
