With the help of this book, you’ll become that explorer. Whether you’re looking to learn all there is to know about climbing the tallest mountains or you’d prefer to dive to the bottom of a squid-filled ocean, it will be your guide to every biome, detailing what you’ll find in them and what challenges lie ahead.

Whether your Minecraft journey is just getting started or you’re a seasoned adventurer, there’s always something new to see, just beyond that hill . . . 

SO LET’S GET EXPLORING!
