Customer Reviews

my kids just love to read it

Great pictures and also very clear text, simple to understand, all about stuff they are really interested in.

Great reference book

My kids (age 8 and 10) are really interested in the environment and I see them reading this book a lot. They go back again and again to explore new topics. The photos are really great and seem to help the book keep their interest for a long time.

Excellent resource

I purchased this book for my daughter, and have ended up reading it just as much myself! The pictures are great, and the information is clear and well-presented. My daughter doesn't only use it for her school projects, but often just picks it up to read for entertainment. I give this book my highest recommendation both to adults as well as kids.

Terrific compendium

A stellar example of children's reference material -- my students use this book constantly as part of their research projects and assignments.
