Bad binding

The layout and photos with a few facts is great for younger kids. However, the binding on these “first big book” series is poor, the pages are coming undone in several of these books we have.

Absolutely must have for kids

This book series is absolutely amazing. We bought most of the books included. They not only taught my child many many many things that he was not exposed to at preschool, they even taught me things that I didn’t know existed before. Reading them to my child has also been a highly interactive and fun experience. Highly recommend!

5year old loves it!

We bought the big book of oceans from a book fair and my daughter loved it so I went looking for this one too. Target had the best price and free shipping thanks to my redcard! This is a hit too, National Geographic never disappoints.

National GEO for kids

My 4 year old grandson absolutely loved this book of animals. He couldn't had been anymore excited than to see all the animals in person. A great book.
