Inhaltsangabe:

Journey across the continents and discover the history, culture and identity found within the fabric of flags!

Every country in the world has a national flag - one country even has two - and there's so much to be learned from these vibrant symbols about the people and places they represent. Discover the druk of Bhutan - its fierce thunder dragon - or how the stunning Southern Cross unites the nations of the Pacific. Learn how each UK country is represented by the Union Flag and how a banner falling from the heavens inspired Denmark to make the world's oldest flag.

Divided into sections covering each continent and featuring theme spreads discussing common similarities of flags around the world, this book celebrates each nation's uniqueness and how our identities are closer than we might think! Unfurl each flag and explore the hopes, dreams and ambitions of our world's great nations.
