Each spread focuses on one destination, & the intricate artwork gives readers a visual flavour of the place, with masses to look at & discover the more you look. There are links from one place to the next
- historical, geographical, natural history or just simple proximity
- for example, there is an ancient Egyptian obelisk in NY`s central park, with two sister obelisks in Paris & London. Find the one in the Central Park using Google [trademark] Earth co-ordinates & it gives you the clue to where you will be going next. The pyramids at the Louvre in Paris will whisk you off to the temples of Ancient Egypt, then find a connection from the Colosseum of Ancient Rome to the hot plains of Tanzania that team with wildlife, from flocks of flamingos to herds of wildebeest to prides of lions. & so on... In each location you have to find a souvenir to take with you. You will also need to solve a puzzle with the help of Google [trademark] Earth to collect co-ordinates for your final secret location
- again on Google [trademark] Earth. For instance, the puzzle tells you to visit the Statue of Liberty on Google [trademark] Earth & to count the number of points on its crown. This number is one of the co-ordinates you need to find your final destination on Google [trademark] Earth at the end of the book.
