Cool stuff to know about every country in the world.
Everyone knows which is the world's highest mountain, but do you
know which country banned chewing gum? Or what's the world's
stinkiest fruit? Or who invented roller skates? Or which building
leans more than the Leaning Tower of Pisa? Or where can you eat
fried spiders as a snack?
Here at Lonely Planet we decided to make a book about the world's
countries for children, not parents. The world is a very big place,
and in The Not-for-Parents Travel Book we've concentrated on the
really interesting bits to create a snapshot of what each country
is like. (Warning to parents: these might not be the same "really
interesting bits" that you like...where to buy coffee, how many
stars the hotel has, what's the phone number for the airport, blah,
blah, blah.
In this book are the epic events, amazing animals, hideous
histories, funky foods, and crazy facts that make the world's 200
countries so fascinating. Each country has a page to itself--so
tiny Tuvalu gets as much space as superpower USA.
