Welcome to the Museum Series

by ,
(52 reviews)

This is one of the most beautiful non-fiction full-colour collections we've ever seen. We recommend this series for readers aged 6+, but this will work for all ages. 

Step into a virtual museum – in each of these gorgeously illustrated books, you will get to explore the many animals, historical artefacts, botanics, ocean creatures, dinosaurs, fungi and even planets on display. Your book is your museum, each spread is a room and intricate artwork brings all the elements to life. 

These books are a feast for the eyes, perfect for fans of the Maps books and the Little Pebble: Transport books.

Book 1: Animalium (2014)
Book 2: Historium (2015)
Book 3: Botanicum (2017)
Book 4: Dinosaurium (2018)
