Maravillas del planeta Tierra es un libro de geología que explica de manera fácil y entretenida cómo funciona la Tierra. Los niños emprenderán un recorrido visual por sus páginas para descubrir las capas y los elementos de la naturaleza de nuestro planeta, empezando por el núcleo metálico, la dura corteza terrestre y la superficie (con sus fascinantes océanos y montañas), hasta llegar a la atmósfera y los fenómenos climáticos. 

En su interior, encontrarás:

  • Narraciones acompañadas de explicaciones y datos científicos sobre el funcionamiento del planeta  y los fenómenos de la naturaleza, como los copos de nieve y las perlas de las cavernas.
  • Impresionantes fotografías que capturan la naturaleza en acción y objetos naturales muy de cerca.
  • Páginas dedicadas a cada capa de la Tierra con información muy completa, para explorarlas con mayor detalle.

¿A qué esperas para descubrir todos los misterios de nuestro cambiante planeta? Con laminado dorado en la cubierta, páginas con bordes dorados y cinta marcapáginas, este libro es un regalo muy bonito para futuros geólogos, geógrafos, ambientalistas y entusiastas del planeta Tierra de todo el mundo.

Este libro pertenece a la famosa colección Anthology de DK en español. Complétala y acompaña a tu hijo a explorar el mundo natural con Maravillas naturales, a aprenderlo todo sobre los dinosaurios que gobernaron la tierra con Dinosaurios y vida prehistórica, o a sumergirse en las profundidades de los mares y océanos con Maravillas del mundo acuático.


Explore the beauty and majesty of planet Earth in this compendium, with more than 100 incredible stories and images.

An Anthology of Our Extraordinary Earth looks at our constantly changing planet, with striking images and scientific ideas that are easy for children to understand. Starting at the centre of the Earth, the book examines each layer in forensic detail: from Earth’s metallic core, drilling through Earth’s tough crust until emerging out onto the planet’s surface, with its lush green rainforests, sparkling oceans, and snow-capped mountains, before sailing up into Earth’s airy atmosphere.

This detailed planet Earth book for kids offers: 

- More than 100 stories about planet Earth, from snowflakes to cave pearls, each one accompanied by a photograph and delightful illustration.
- Creative photography that presents planet Earth in surprising and remarkable ways, capturing nature in action or showing intriguing features up close.
- Beautiful gold foil, gilded edges, and a ribbon for keeping your place.
- In-depth feature pages that examine each layer of Earth.

This striking book won’t fail to excite budding geologists, geographers, environmentalists, and all-round planet Earth enthusiasts everywhere.
