"We have loved every book this series includes so far, they are pitched so well and executed perfectly. The variety of illustrations as well as the fabulous quality are a real plus for us. The different sections, such as 'Did You Know?' and 'Fast Facts' were big hits. They are perfect topic books for using in a classroom environment, and great for home education as well. The broad overview of the whole subject is great for children in bite size pieces. We have great fun trying the quizzes.

We can't wait to see what comes next."--@literate.littles
