imaginative rendering will fill hours of wonderment, always with
the delightful anticipation of seeking still one more amazing
detail."--Booklist "With paintings, visual puzzles and
tricks of perception, Anno introduces geography and science by
focusing on children and adults at work and play, as well as on
art, architecture, composers, and painters, as he conducts an
imaginary tour of England . . . Lush paintings, exquisitely
detailed . . . An exceptional book."--Publishers Weekly A Boston
