Every Second

Every Second appeals on a visual as well as informative level. Gilbert has used a stylish palette and bold, graphic illustrations to add punch to the, at times uncomfortable, facts included. As you'd expect from a text published by What on Earth Books, this is a thought-provoking picture book for a more enlightened generation. * Armadillo Magazine * Young children love to learn about the world around them, and are full of questions. This Bruno Gilbert book will feed their imaginations, and give them another dozen reasons to ask Why? So, whether you are interested in how many lightning strikes there are each second, or the volume of cow farts produced each second, there is something in here to tickle everyone's imagination! * Teach Early Years Magazine * This is such a brilliant concept and will really appeal to anyone who likes facts and figures. It is full of bizarre and interesting insights into what goes on in our world every single second of the day. How many babies are born? How many lightning bolts strike? How many pairs of shoes are sold? Many of the answers were surprising, some fairly worrying and some quite amusing! Very thought provoking, especially when comparisons can be made between things such as money spent on weapons and arms, versus that spent on humanitarian aid. It is well laid out with beautiful graphics to support each page and would make a lovely gift book. * @KatePoelsWrites (Instagram blog) *
