You'll find masses of fascinating facts such as these in the vivid, colourful pages of this book. The book is packed with hundreds of natural wonders that will fill you with wonder: plants that can carry electical currents, a volcano almost as high as Mount Everest, and the amazing journeys of sea turtles, salmon and caribou on their annual treks to breeding and spawning grounds.
