A spectacularly gigantic fact book from the creative team behind the bestselling FACTopia! series.

You are hereby invited to the Palace of Facts, where 400 astonishing facts are on display... Search the treasure room to find out facts about crystals; explore the fossil hall to dig up facts about dinosaurs; scale the observatory to spot facts about space; delve into the dungeons to discover hidden facts. On this marvelous journey, you will be accompanied by three characters--Pip, Alice, and their dog Charley--who will lead you from room to room with witty and playful charm.

Every fact is woven into Andy Smith's lavishly illustrated scenes. Inspired by the idea of a memory palace--where facts are located in imagined physical spaces--this unique book makes information both beautiful and memorable.
