Armchair travelers, rejoice! Visit every country in exciting Europe—and explore its culture, history, wildlife, and more—in a lively and comprehensive guide brimming with fascinating facts and vibrant illustrations.

The extraordinary continent of Europe is only a page turn away in this engaging, wide-ranging resource. Readers take a tour of each country with the help of clear and colorful maps, fun illustrations, and quick facts on just about everything—including natural wonders, different cities, cultural traditions, science, sports, pop culture, the arts, and more—plus a crash course in Europe’s dramatic history. Curious would-be globe-trotters will get a glimpse of the continent’s highest capital city in Andorra, Italy’s smoky Mount Etna, and a festival in Denmark devoted to licorice. They’ll catch the sound of yodeling as it echoes across the Swiss Alps, meet the tufty long-eared owls of Serbia, and even learn a Slovakian tongue twister! Back matter of this accessible and immersive overview includes a fact file and an index.
