An awe-inspiring adventure to some of the world's most remote and intriguing places.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Join nature filmmaker Seth Foreston on an incredible journey to some of Earth's most remote places. Discover their fascinating history, the ancient cultures that have called them home, and the incredible creatures found there through 14 detailed maps.

Readers will meet the monkeys swinging through the jungles of the Congo, ascend from the savannah to the snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, and trek through Australia's inhospitable outback.

Kids will discover how salmon keep ecosystems alive in British Columbia, why snow leopards have taken over an abandoned city in the Himalayas, and which creatures in Romania's Carpathian mountains have inspired terrifying tales and legends.

A mixture of richly-detailed illustrated maps and stunning scenes created by Bao Luu bring each remote location to life and will encourage a sense of wonder and a thirst for adventure. The decorative foiled cover and beautiful illustrations make this the perfect gift for Indiana Jones wannabes to return to again and again!

The Wild Atlas by Neon Squid and Seth Foreston is an adventure waiting to be explored.
