32. Explorers Storybook

A little self promotion here: one of the best travel gifts this season is my new book Explorers! Explorers focuses on 50 of the world’s greatest explorers, and their towering achievements. The book is filled with first-person accounts in the explorers’ own words and beautiful illustrations that re-create history’s greatest expeditions.

There are also incredible cross-sections revealing the amazing detail inside Spanish galleons, lost cities, and spaceships. Hand-drawn maps reveal their intrepid journeys in great detail, and photographs highlight the artifacts and relics they found along the way. I might be biased, but I honestly think it’s one of the best travel books you can get for little explorers.
