" Colorful, bold graphic illustrations punctuate the statistics cited with sources noted at the end. The eye-popping numbers and images are sure to ignite wonder if not curiosity." - Reading Rockets, "What goes on around the world in every tick of the clock? In this graphically stylish exploration of what might happen in a second, Gibert goes for hard numbers. The author pores over nearly three dozen recently published official statistical reports (all listed in the backmatter) and does some math. Most telling are the juxtapositions: $860 invested in humanitarian aid opposite $57,700 in arms sales; 20,000 plastic bottles produced versus 1,600 recycled; 485 trees cut down but just 158 replanted. Where relevant, each number is presented in both English and metric measures and each is paired to a full-page or larger illustration done in a serigraphic style, mostly featuring relevant shapes or silhouettes." - Kirkus Reviews "Those who enjoy books such as If You Hopped Like a Frog, or How Much is a Million? may find this book interesting. Also, teachers may find it useful as a model text to have students create their own infographics" - Youth Services Book Review "This book will amuse and enlighten young or casual readers; more thoughtful readers will appreciate its global perspective and many ideas to ponder." - School Library Journal "Colorful, bold graphic illustrations punctuate the statistics cited with sources noted at the end. The eye-popping numbers and images are sure to ignite wonder if not curiosity." - Reading Rockets "A book of incredible facts from our fast-moving world." - Time for Kids "Good solid book." - Puget Sound Council for the Review of Children's and Young Adult Literature, "What goes on around the world in every tick of the clock?

The facts initially seem random, but they follow a loose pattern. For example, following a series of facts related to human dietary habits, readers learn the volume of human excrement and household waste produced each second (20,300 and 23,300 pounds, respectively) and the relatively paltry amount of recycling and replanting that humans do.VERDICT: This book will amuse and enlighten young or casual readers; more thoughtful readers will appreciate its global perspective and many ideas to ponder." - School Library Journal
