Armchair travelers, rejoice! Visit every country in exciting Europe--and explore its culture, history, wildlife, and more--in a lively and comprehensive guide brimming with fascinating facts and vibrant illustrations.

The extraordinary continent of Europe is only a page turn away in this engaging, wide-ranging resource.

Curious would-be globe-trotters will get a glimpse of the continent's highest capital city in Andorra, Italy's smoky Mount Etna, and a festival in Denmark devoted to licorice. They'll catch the sound of yodeling as it echoes across the Swiss Alps, meet the tufty long-eared owls of Serbia, and even learn a Slovakian tongue twister! Back matter of this accessible and immersive overview includes a fact file and an index.
