Synopsis

Hundreds of fascinating facts are waiting to be unearthed in this latest book from Aleksandra and Daniel Mizielinski, the creative duo behind the bestselling Maps. Dive below the surface, and find out what happens under the earth and under the water. From early submarines and deep-sea life, to burrowing animals and man-made tunnels - you will never look at the world in the same way again!

Gorgeous design and quirky illustrations make this a book to be pored over again and again.
This gorgeous large hardback explores what happens under the earth and in our oceans and seas in fantastically colourful and accessible double-page spreads. These feature engaging, readable text snippets and fascinating facts about everything from oil rigs to badgers.

An excellent, special book which will enthral young readers, adults and engage reluctant readers too, this is a really excellent example of illustrated nonfiction that is both comprehensive and fun.
Under Water and Under Earth are inspired by Under Water, Under Earth and inspire children to think about what happens under the ground and in our seas and rivers as well as who lives in them. The books contain 36 drawing activities on sturdy A4 pages which can be torn out and the back of each page also has an underwater or underground creature to colour.
In Under Water my daughter had fun learning The Diver's Language, cleaning up the lake and finding the shortest route through the wreck of The Titanic. In Under Earth she enjoyed choosing and colouring in items to take with her on a Cave Expedition and Draw the Burrowing Animals led her to think about the myriad of creatures that live underground. Both books made us think more about the natural world and are great for helping children to improve their drawing skills.
