Up and Down

Description

Go star-spotting, find out about cave-dwelling creatures, and discover a whole world of fascinating information in this gorgeously illustrated two-in-one book about the world.

Read one way, Up and Down focuses on whats up above us clouds, stars, the Sun and Moon, things that fly. Flip the book and read it the other way to find out whats down beneath our feet burrowing animals, the Earths crust, fossils, caves, the Earths core.
