Compelling facts are told by the expert author and contributor to Encyclopaedia Britannica and winner of the Royal Society Young People's Book Prize, Clive Gifford.



With stunning illustrations and innovative paper engineering, What's Above? is the perfect non-fiction pop-up book for children who loved Above and Below and Under the Ocean.
