Editorial Reviews

While the illustrations, from different illustrators, in these books will not win prizes for their beauty, they are very appropriate for illustrating the answers to the questions that are covered. Each page presents several questions in large headline-style text boxes; the question is answered in simple terms, giving just the right amount of information to satisfy young curiosity. The illustrations are comical, but perfect as a pictorial response to the questions. While these books are not the definitive source for information and facts, the topics covered are interesting and factual. At the end of the book, there is a recommendation to go to the publisher’s portal for more information. The website is simple to use and can be used to supplement the minimal information found the books. This is a nice nonfiction browsing selection. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. Recommended.
