No one is sure exactly how they moved the giant statues into place. In fact, no one really knows how people got there in the first place! Readers are sure to enjoy learning about the mystery surrounding Easter Island. Colorful images of the moai, flora, fauna, and more help transport readers to this amazing world wonder.
