Description
Step out your front door and begin a journey of discovery around the world! Fold out the richly illustrated pages of this expansive accordion-fold book to clamber over mountain ranges, trek through jungles, and sail across vast seas. Spot wildlife, visit amazing cities, experience different cultures, and see famous landmarks as you whiz by.
With so much to explore on this globetrotting adventure, it’s a good thing the book stretches to an incredible length of over eight feet—you’ll get halfway around the world before you even have to turn the page!
Stretch out the book's concertina pages and take in the wonders of the world's cities and landmarks—traveling through over 60 countries. Then turn it over and explore the amazing diversity of creatures and landscapes on planet Earth. What can you spot on your travels?
Explore even more of the world with the critically acclaimed The Street Beneath My Feet (March 2017) and The Skies Above My Eyes (August 2018), companion books from the Look Closer series.

Unrelated to the content of this book, but this file was terribly formatted. I really struggled to read it.
Really a tour of some of the biggest landmarks and places in the world, this will delight children and allow them to travel the globe in the pages of a book.

I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.
The world around me is a beautifully illustrated book which takes you down the paths of 60 countries to explore the world. There are wonderful illustrations in this book and enough detail that each time you read it you will discover something new. The book is spotted with small pieces of information about where you can visit and what there is in that country to see.
This is a beautiful book sure to encapture many little explorers minds.

Really awesome book about places around the world, with lots of fun facts! The kids loved learning about all the places to go. Especially given covid-19, it's great to have the opportunity to explore the world through the comforts of one's home and through beautiful drawings!
