Our world is full of amazing natural wonders. From sparkling seas and towering trees, to valleys, lakes and waterfalls, there are extraordinary places that seem too magical to be true but can be found right here on planet Earth. There are ghostly green lights of the aurora borealis near the North Pole, and exquisite rainbow mountains in China. There is a lake in Australia so pink it looks like fairy floss, and giant crystal caves hidden below Mexico. These are just some of the incredible places you will discover in Our World Full of Wonder. Shall we go explore? Reading level varies from child to child, but we recommend this book for ages 5 to 9. Shortlisted, The Wilderness Society Environment Award for Children's Literature 2025: Picture Fiction Shortlisted, The Speech Pathology Australia Book of the Year Awards 2025: 5–8 years
