ABOUT

This fun, fact-filled book for kids ages 6–9 is the ultimate guide to three great civilizations of the American continents—the Maya, Incas, and Aztecs. Entertaining and educating young readers through a combination of close-up images, quirky trivia facts, quiz questions, and fascinating tidbits, it’s the perfect book for any kid who can’t get enough of ancient history.

Why was gold sacred to the Incas? Which modern city grew where the Aztec settlement of Tenochtitlan used to sit? How did the Maya and Aztecs first create drinking chocolate? Find out the answers to these questions and more in DKfindout! Maya, Incas, and Aztecs, which features photographs of artifacts, weapons, and personal property from throughout the reign of these awe-inspiring peoples. "Interviews" with inhabitants from each civilization give insight into their daily lives, like what they ate and which religions they followed, while sections on medicine, art, and technology show how these cultures’ achievements have influenced modern society. From Chichen Itza to Machu Picchu, kids will uncover every corner of these amazing civilizations as they flip through the pages of DKfindout! Maya, Incas, and Aztecs.

The DKfindout! series is one that kids will want to turn to again and again.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
