World Book Encyclopedia 2024 Hardcover – December 1, 2023

Why are you gatekeeping this knowledge behind such A large price tag. I know it does not cost you $1,200 to print those books per set. What is wrong with you people I know it does not cost you $1,200 to print those books per set. What is wrong with you people?

Why did they have to make it look stupid?

This set is so pretty and funky with the design on the spines. The books themselves are mostly manageable size so if you had them and a curious kid wanted to check them out they totally could (which is what I did as a kid with my dads set and one of the reasons I wanted a set myself). Each book comes individually wrapped in plastic and are very very well protected. I didn't receive a single book that was dented which feels pretty miraculous because there are so many in the set.

Too bad the content appears as if edited by CNN or ABC with a decided leftist slant.

The 2024 World Book Encyclopedia set is an impressive collection, with a huge range of articles that cover so many topics in-depth. The 22 volumes make it quite substantial, both in weight and in the wealth of knowledge provided, perfect for those who prefer to look things up without screens. However, it’s quite an investment, so it’s best for those who really value having a physical encyclopedia in their home or library.
