From School Library Journal:
Grade 4-6?These broad overviews describe the geography and ecology of mountain, desert, and island environments, and the different types of human cultures that exist in each locale. Information about settlements, houses, work, transportation, communication, daily life and leisure, tourism, and the outlook for the future is conveyed through simple sentences. The large, inviting format has a balance of text and illustration, with colorful, eye-catching sidebars. The attractive, full-color photographs effectively provide additional details about life in each environ. These volumes will reach a slightly older audience than the "Peoples and Their Environments" series (Rosen).?Eunice Weech, M. L. King Elementary School, Urbana, IL
