A World of Wonder is an interactive book designed to help children develop a wonder for, and an appreciation of, the world in which we all live. The book combines spectacular images with a variety of verse...from time-honored and classic to new and sometimes humorous.Using a code reader on a phone or tablet, QR codes throughout the book whisk children off to a variety of tech-based features to enhance the experience. For example, Simon, the nVizn indri (IN dree) leads children to activities, videos and experiments to extend the learning. Poem narrations are included to help children learn poetic rhythm and rhyme but also because it is quite nice to have something read aloud. And short videos, accompanied by beautiful music, help children see what a wonderful world we all share. An example:A cute poem about the International Space Station seen as a twinkling star is followed by a beautiful image of the Station seen flying over Earth and then a link to more information about how parents and children can spot the space station as it flies overhead.This delightful book provides a multitude of opportunities for parents and children to spend quality time together.

A World of Wonder is a book designed to help children develop a wonder for, and an appreciation of, the world in which we all live. The book combines spectacular images with a variety of poetry and verse…from time-honored and classic to new and sometimes humorous. This is not the type of book typically read in one session. We encourage readers to come and go as children ask questions about the world. Children can certainly experience the book on their own, but we also encourage parents and teachers to engage with children - ask questions to tease out their understanding of the world and provide guidance where and when it seems appropriate. We also encourage you to follow children’s leads to encourage their interests in our magnificent world. The authors, both educators and researchers with many years of experience, ensure that each facet of the experience is scientifically and pedagogically appropriate for young children. (This version is the non-interactive version of an interactive ebook available on other platforms.)
