This concept intrigued me, so I was excited to receive a compimentary copy of the book through NetGalley. First impressions are important, so it was disappointing to open the book and immediately see a worldview presented as fact when it is clearly unscientific. If the claim of "millions of years ago" is not supported by science, it begs the question of what other claims in the book are unreliable. All in all, I enjoyed the book and would recommend it to my students with the disclaimer. The book is broken into "bite-sized" pieces, and continues at a reasonable pace for grades 3-6. There are fun activities to reinforce the concepts. I imagine it as especially suitable for homeschooling families.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
My daughters and I love going on hikes and adventuring, so this was the perfect read for us! We tried out some of the neat ideas and they both thought it was the coolest thing.
The illustrations and layout is wonderful! All the bright colors are great and are very appealing, especially for children.
The way the author chose to weave history along in with the adventure tips was a very fun and original way to do it.
It’s definitely a book we’ll look back on anytime we’re wanting to explore outdoors and try a few new fun ways to get around and see “the world”!
