{REVIEW}
Ripley’s Strikingly True is a very fun book and great for ALL ages.
The book is thick and sturdy, which I love in a book. 256 pages are filled with LOTS of interesting facts and photos to go along with it. All of the pictures are great quality and vibrant. The cover is shiny and bright which draws you in.
I loved reading over this book and learning new things like: people having magnets inserted into their finger tips and the Kevin Bacon sculpture made out of bacon bits, among other things.
This book would make a great gift for anyone or a great coffee table book.
