This striking portrait of our world in numbers makes statistics fun and accessible to children and their grown-ups.
Every second, somewhere across the globe, an aeroplane takes off and another one lands. Two people die, and four babies enter the world. 15,000 plastic bottles are produced and 1,600 are recycled. 8,000 scoops of ice cream are eaten, 200,000 text messages are sent. This book of remarkable facts, lushly illustrated with memorable infographics, reveals the incredible things that happen each and every second in our world.
Bruno Gibert has published more than twenty inventive works as both an author and an illustrator including an alternative dictionary of 500 random words and a children's guide to conducting an orchestra. He lives and works in Paris, France.
