Take a deep breath and dive into the fully updated and revised Guinness World Records 2024 ! This year’s edition compiles the very best of the thousands of new records approved over the past year, confirming once again that the public have an insatiable appetite for superlatives! And with lockdowns and quarantines a distant memory for much of the world, the claims have been flooding in… As you'll see from the cover by award-winning artist Rod Hunt, the theme of year’s book is the Blue Planet, so join us on a deep-sea odyssey to the bottom of the oceans. Encounter the most bizarre, beautiful and deadly sea creatures, swim through the largest coral reefs and kelp forests, explore the seabed for shipwrecks and lost treasure, and meet the ocean’s most fearless pioneers. You’ll also find plenty of new and classic records to explore once you’re back on dry land, with topics as diverse as rollercoasters, robots, movie props and manga. And as ever, you’ll discover the latest record-breaking successes in music, TV, gaming and sports. Review: Love it so much I’m buying a second one for myself! - I purchased this for my eight-year-old grandson and the detailed review is in the video. I cannot put the book down. I need to wrap it for a gift! This is an amazing book for both children and adults. There are enough facts in this book to keep an adult engaged and of course pictures always make anyone want to read more. The pictures are gorgeous, very colorful and detailed. It’s the kind of book that you want to just flip through but then when you see something that you like you’ll read it. I am a retired teacher, so I know that the combination of pictures and reading is important. The book really is not a children’s book, but once they start reading, they could get some facts out of it and keep this book for a few years. I know that I had my original Guinness book of records for many years and always referred to it. This is a great coffee table book to give to any adult. This is the latest version, so I’m sure there are facts that were not in last year‘s edition. I’m very happy with this purchase and as I said, I’m going to buy myself one .. Worth every penny. Review: New Knowledge - The Guinness World Records 2024 edition is an absolute treasure trove of astonishing achievements and mind-blowing records. This annual publication never fails to captivate readers of all ages, and the 2024 edition is no exception. The book is beautifully illustrated with high-quality photographs that bring each record to life, making it an engaging read from cover to cover. The diversity of the records is impressive, ranging from awe-inspiring human feats to quirky and unusual accomplishments that you wouldn’t believe unless you saw them documented here. What I love most about this edition is how it highlights not just the achievements themselves but also the stories behind them. It’s inspiring to read about the dedication, creativity, and sometimes sheer luck that brought these records to fruition. The layout is user-friendly, with sections that make it easy to find topics of interest, whether you’re into sports, science, nature, or pop culture. Overall, Guinness World Records 2024 is a fantastic addition to any book collection, perfect for curious minds and trivia enthusiasts. It’s a book that you can return to again and again, always finding something new and fascinating. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fun and educational read!

Traditional Gift Giving
When my brother was young he would receive a Guinness world record book every year for Christmas. I have since passed this tradition to my son. He is always so excited to look through each new book for any additional records or changes to records from previous years. We have decades worth of Guinness world record books now and they display beautifully on our family bookshelf, interestingly a good conversation piece as well :)

Quality, price, delivery
Just arrived (06/20/2024) and very impressed with this book. It has a lots of information and the hardcover copy is top quality. My sons who are trivia buffs, will really enjoy these books (I bought 2 of them). These are to be given as Christmas gifts. I have seen these same books sell for $30 to $40, so at around $16 ,it is a great bargain. I highly recommend this seller AAA+++

Got this for my 12 year old grandson and he and his friends LOVED it!
My grandson and his friends were absolutely fascinated by this book. They actually took a break from video games and other activities to pour over some of the records and it was hard to pull them away from the book. I was equally fascinated by stuff like this when I was their age and hoped it would carry over even though the kids these days are so technology based, and I was right!
