Barefoot Books and New Internationalist World Atlas

One of the most appealing of this year’s books is non-fiction; the Barefoot Books World Atlas by Nick Crane (illustrated by David Dean, £14.99), which is full of fascinating, slightly alternative details, will make your children yearn for foreign climes, occupy them on the way there, and give them an inkling about what to do when they arrive. - Toby Clement, The Daily Telegraph.

'World Atlas' written by Nick Crane, illustrated by David Dean, and recently released by children’s publisher Barefoot Books, is an unconventional beauty. Land masses are divided into regions, not continents, which makes sense, especially in a place as vast as Asia. Maps in a palette of purple and gold feature not a grid of latitude and longitude lines but icons of animals, landmarks, and manmade features, such as the Rubik’s cube invented by a Hungarian professor. - Boston Globe.

Barefoot Books’ newly released World Atlas for children, written by Nick Crane and illustrated by David Dean, is one of those books that will grow with your child over time. It is stuffed with factoids and information about our planet, with colorful illustrations that will continue to entice children to explore its pages. - InCulture Parent Magazine.

budding geographers of 7+ will relish World Atlas - Amanda Craig, The Times.

This Atlas is worthy of it’s own post. I can’t recommend it highly enough. First, it’s gorgeous. The illustrations are beautiful! The information is interactive using flip-up sections and uniquely interesting tidbits....My kids have poured over this atlas repeatedly and learn something new every time they pick it up. - Ciao Bambino.
