Lonely Planet Kids and Anna Claybourne

illustrated by Rob Ball

Ever wondered what life will be like 100 years from now? Based on the latest in scientific thinking, Future Worlds will tell you just that, covering everything from the forms of transport we will use, the jobs we will do to how and what we will eat. Welcome to the future. . .
Packed full of incredible facts, written by Anna Claybourne and illustrated by Rob Ball, you'll get the chance to truly imagine the world in which we will one day live. With full-page gatefolds and flaps to lift that reveal extra information, there's plenty of scope for kids and adults alike to envision the future of Planet Earth.
Predict what our cities will look like, how we'll keep ourselves entertained, whether we might end up colonizing other worlds, how we might combat the effects of climate change and lots more. This is a new Lonely Planet guide to the world - just one that doesn't exist yet.
