Here readers will learn the answers to all the questions they've asked themselves: Why does the Sun look like from different planets in our galaxy? Why doesn't the Moon always appear the same? What is the largest river on Earth? And the highest mountain? In Geo-Graphics, our world becomes transformed by acclaimed artist Regina Giménez, into 87 pages of gorgeous shapes and colors. Planets and stars, continents and islands, rivers and lakes, volcanoes and hurricanes ... here they are presented as circles, polygons, lines, spirals, and accompanying facts that explain the world around us.
