Book
The big book of W.O.W. : astounding animals, bizarre phenomena, sensational space, and more wonders of our world / Kelly Hargrave and Andrea Silen.
What makes you say WOW? Gazing at the dancing lights of the aurora borealis or the phantomlike, all-white spirit bear? Taking in the towering Burj Khalifa, one of the tallest buildings in the world, or the RoboBee X-Wing, the lightest robot to fly without a tether? Wandering through the ancient city of Petra, Jordan, or untangling the mystery of the Nasca Lines in Peru? Pondering what's way out there in space, or down in the darkest depths of the ocean? Your inner adventurer will get to see and experience it all in this journey through the most incredible and inspiring wonders of our world. Breathtaking photographs and far-out facts reveal the truth, history, and science behind every wow-worthy place, thing, and phenomenon. You'll be left with one thought: What else is out there just waiting to be explored? -- Provided by publisher.
