Comprising three titles, Let's Discover Our Farms, Singapore!, Let's Discover Science, Singapore! and Let's Discover Our Seashores, Singapore!, the books take junior explorers all across the city state — from the shiny man-made structures like the Esplanade, to the sustainable farms, to the architectural wonders of nature on the beaches of our little island. Every title comes with bonus features made possible through QR codes.
