It is aimed at a young audience and is written in a lively and engaging style, with plenty of illustrations and anecdotes to capture the reader's attention.The book is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on natural curiosities, including descriptions of exotic animals, plants, and geological formations from around the world. The second part of the book covers artificial curiosities, including inventions and discoveries in science, technology, and engineering. Topics covered include the steam engine, the telegraph, the printing press, and the discovery of electricity.Throughout the book, Goodrich emphasizes the importance of curiosity and encourages young readers to explore the world around them. He also stresses the value of knowledge and education, presenting the book as a fun and engaging way for young people to learn about the world.Peter Parley's Book of Curiosities was a popular book in its time and went through numerous editions and reprints.
