From rocks to redwoods and microbes to mammals – this is a dazzling visual introduction to our planet’s treasures. Filled with more than 5,000 species and in-depth studies of animals, plants, fungi, microorganisms, rocks, and minerals, it’s the ultimate celebration of the world’s extraordinary diversity of life. Planet Earth's eclectic wildlife and endless wonders come to life in the most spectacular way in this monumental compendium of Earth’s natural wonders. Compiled by a team of professional wildlife experts working with the world-renowned Smithsonian Institution, this comprehensive nature book was 5 years in the making! This unrivaled visual survey of Earth's natural history looks at every kingdom of life. It is packed with thousands of eye-popping, specially commissioned photographs and in-depth two-page spreads on incredible species. The engaging and informative text was supplied by a global team of natural history experts to make this bold visual encyclopedia a perfect addition to every family bookshelf or school library. From the evolution of nature to the classification of species, Natural History begins with a general introduction to life on earth. The next chapters form an extensive and accessible catalog of species and specimens – from flowering plants to reptiles – interspersed with fact-filled introductions to each group and in-depth profile features. A True Visual Dictionary of Earth's Natural Wonders Natural History squeezes as many plants, animals, rocks, and minerals as possible between its covers. This extraordinary reference book from DK Books is eye candy for nature lovers of all ages, and makes a fantastic gift! Explore everything on Earth, such as: • Living earth • Minerals, rocks, and fossils • Microscopic life • Plants • Fungi • Animals Review: Beautiful and Mesmerizing! - One more of the truly wonderful DK (Dorling Kindersley) books. This publisher is well-known for copious illustrations, quality paper, and a smart layout that packs the utmost material into their pages, while still being attractive and a pleasure to read, or to simply look at the exceptional pictures. (If you buy from desertcart or its Marketplace, the prices can be affordable.) For 'Natural HIstory: The Ultimate Visual Guide to Everything on Earth,' DK has partnered with the venerable Smithsonian to produce a work of a larger scope than any of the other DK volumes in my personal library. This one was irresistible to me, and after Christmas I bought it with a gift card I'd received :) To give you an inkling of the breadth of the book, you'll find pictures of: pyrite, fulgurite, a fossilized plesiosaur flipper, the euglena, the ginko, the piggyback plant, the mousepee pinkgill mushroom, the tardigrade, the Pacific spookfish, the Southern screamer bird, the Tasmanian devil, the Diana monkey, the Java mouse deer, and the hourglass dolphin. Yes, perhaps the book's title exaggerates somewhat in saying "Everything on Earth," but nevertheless it's a treasure! I could hardly bring myself to put it down once I first opened it, and just to browse through it still feels like a reward. Should you buy it? Certainly! And share it with any children in your family, too. Review: Stellar book. Really worth having around for generations. - If you grew up in a house like mine, there were a few big, lumbering volumes that you'd return to year after year, whatever your age, to browse through, look at the pictures, consume a bit of trivia, and absorb knowledge by osmosis. And even as an adult, you still remember them and the hours that you've spent over the years looking at them. This is just such a book. Beautiful images, wonderful, broad content that is informative and surprisingly deep, both for kids and for adults. Lots of pages, lots of heft. Not a throwaway "pictopedia" at all, but a good general reference for Earth science and biology. Heavy. Heavy, heavy, heavy in the best way, with thousands of glossy pages that keep kids and adults alike engrossed for hours on end. Absolutely worth it at double the price. Get it and keep it on your coffee table and watch as everyone reaches for it, opens it, and immediately starts commenting on the things—educational things, real things—that they're surprised and delighted by inside. The perfect antidote to our social media age and malaise. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #378,055 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #411 in Natural History (Books) #498 in Biology of Wildlife #561 in Outdoors & Nature Reference | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 1,828 Reviews | ## Images ![Natural History: The Ultimate Visual Guide to Everything on Earth - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ur5E18lbL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful and Mesmerizing! *by C***S on October 26, 2013* One more of the truly wonderful DK (Dorling Kindersley) books.

The perfect antidote to our social media age and malaise. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stunning! *by L***E on January 8, 2020* We just started homeschooling last year, and my son is one of those kids that loves to snuggle down with a book and just absorb it all, then later tell you all about the interesting things he's learned. When I saw this book I knew he would love it. It's HUGE! Almost 2 inches thick, this thing has some girth to it. It's one of those that you add to your collection for life, and will keep going back to. The content is amazing, and the photos are stunning. It covers everything in the natural world, from animals to minerals to microbes. Fabulous resource. I know we'll be coming back to this over and over. ## Frequently Bought Together - Natural History: The Ultimate Visual Guide to Everything on Earth - Zoology: Inside the Secret World of Animals (DK Secret World Encyclopedias) - Oceanology: The Secrets of the Sea Revealed (DK Secret World Encyclopedias) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/4030064-natural-history-the-ultimate-visual-guide-to-everything-on-earth](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/4030064-natural-history-the-ultimate-visual-guide-to-everything-on-earth) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
