Flags Around the World : DK: desertcart.in: Books Review: Extensive coverage of the topic. Good for overall extracurricular personality development. - THE NEED – A PREVIEW : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx My 7 year old kid is sort of self-drawn to facts and figures & is addicted to flags and capitals of the world.He spends majority of his time inspecting the globe or atlas so I thought to further nourish his learnings of the nations and flags by getiing this book for him. ABOUT THE BOOK: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx As the title suggests, the book is intended for age group 5 to 7 years and in actual is for the same age group. The book was received quite fast just after three days of ordering. Allow me to introduce you to the book in a systematic fashion under various heads, I could think of. 1. Book Binding : ************************** This book is only available in paperback binding as expected for its cost. The main cover of the book is reasonably thick which is good. The main cover & inner pages of the book are bound together by threads but the main cover of the book may come off with rough handling. No big deal though as the book is meant for a short lifetime & the cover can be glued back again. 2. Size : **************** The book dimensions fare around 11 inches (Height ) by 8.5 inches ( Width ).Thickness is around 5 mm so it’s a big book for kids however with a bigger book you can expect bigger font size , bigger pictures & clear visibility. 3. Content & No. of pages : ******************************** This book is rated for kids for age group 5+ which is age appropriate . The book has in total 32 pages worth of infotainment in form of colourful flags and facts . The book contains around 250 stickers that could be peeled off from one location and pasted to its right location as per the continent or landmark given in the book. Such an activity is highly beneficial in making the child learn the flags or continents of various nations around the world. Few vacant stickers are also given in case the child ids fascinated to create his own flag which is quite obvious after a kid handles this book. The quality of the pages as well as the thickness and glue of the stickers is very good and none of the stickers are torn attempting to peel them off. Overall the content is quite colourful & engaging. Most of all well suited for kids above 5+ to 8 years depending upon kids interest, I suppose. Edition: The book is based upon the 2017 revised edition & is reprinted in 2018. 4. Paper Quality / Durability: *************************************** The paper quality offered at the given price is pretty thick & by no means fragile. It is highly smooth & shiny almost similar to hardcover editions. No print impressions overlap pages. 5. Real Life Photos / Illustrations: ******************************************** The book is full of colorful illustrations & real life snaps on each page which is quite apt to engage little kids & could be asked for, at this price. 6. Price : ***************** The book comes with a price of 180 bucks which is quite cheap for the content it offers. FINAL VERDICT : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx All in all , As a plus, I would just say it’s a great value for money which rightfully serves its intended purpose of knowledge enhancement & engagement , fuelling up the quest to learn & develop on a global scale.. Surely recommended. Review: Fun learning - Good one. My kids loves it... especially 'make your own flag' was so much fun.The quality of the book is good and the pages are colorful. Easier for kids to learn and it sure is lots of fun to match and stick the correct flags. A must buy for summer holidays. Kids will enjoy it.

Bought this for my son as he’s really into flags at the moment, and he absolutely loved it! The stickers were a huge hit, and he’s had so much fun going through them. His knowledge of flags has grown even more since getting this book—such a great buy for kids who are curious about the world.
