Many of us have already started our holiday shopping and it seems like every year there is always that one person who is impossible to shop for. You know, the person who has everything?! A really fun gift that everyone will enjoy is The Guinness Book of World Records. They have come out with their 2010 edition and as always, it does not disappoint.


I received the 2010 edition for this review and it is wonderful! It is a very nice hardcover book {perfect for gift giving} that will last throughout the years and the pictures inside are beautifully shot. What's new in the 2010 edition?

Free downloadable content, including videos, photographs, screensavers and interviews - 100% new photographs and fully updated records - Brilliant new "steampunk" graphic novel design - New sections and record threads celebrating the first decade of the 21st century - Top 50 Records of the Decade - Record of the Day - one for every day of the year - Unbreakable Records (those that will seemingly never be broken) - Lasts (records such as the last living survivor of the Titanic disaster, or the last known dodo) - The Name's Bond (celebrating the James Bond phenomenon) - Culture Shock (unusual rituals and festivals around the globe) - Gold (the commodity that never loses its luster) - Updated gazetteer sections covering records in all major regions of the world - Fully updated regular sections, including Space, Planet Earth, The Animal Planet, The Body, Human Achievements, Engineering and Technology, The Modern World, Arts and the Media and, of course, Sports.
