Overview
General Knowledge Genius! is a brilliantly designed quiz encyclopedia from DK that turns learning into a game. Packed with more than 60 topics spanning nature, science, history, and culture, it challenges young readers to test what they know and discover plenty more. With eye-catching photography, punchy fun facts, and three escalating difficulty levels, this paperback is ideal for curious kids, quiz-loving families, and anyone who enjoys a good brain workout.

About the Book
Every spread in General Knowledge Genius! is built around a simple but addictive idea: can you identify what you're looking at? Striking full-colour photographs of landmarks, animals, historical artefacts, flags, and natural wonders sit alongside “Test Yourself” panels that pose focused, playful questions. Readers progress through three tiers of challenge — Starter, Challenger, and the notoriously tricky Genius level — meaning the book grows with the reader rather than being outgrown after one read-through. Stuck on an answer? A handy fun fact accompanies every image, offering a clue while quietly building general knowledge along the way. The result is a book that works equally well as a quiet solo read, a classroom warm-up activity, or a noisy family trivia night. Because the topics range so widely — from geography and wildlife to history, science, and pop culture staples — there's genuinely something for every kind of curious mind, and the quiz format keeps pages turning in a way a straight reference book rarely manages. It's the kind of book children return to again and again, not because they have to, but because there's always one more question they want to get right.

• Three difficulty levels — Starter, Challenger, Genius — for progressive learning
• Bold “Test Yourself” photo panels that sharpen observation and memory
• A fun fact with every image to give clues and boost retention
