In the 1990s, two series for young readers (although not pitched at quite the same age groups) provided nice resources for learning: "Eyewitness Books" and the Time-Life series, "A Child's First Library of Learning." The first is a stunning collection. I am not sure that this series is at quite the same level--but it is a very good resource for younger kids any way you look at it.

This volume focuses on "The World We Live In." The Time-Life works are organized in a Q-A format: a question is posed and then the book provides an answer that is developmentally appropriate for the audience. There are also sidebar comments for parents, to assist in parents and children talking about the various subjects covered.

First question (pages 4-5)? "Why are some countries hot while others are cold?" The text then answers by discussing different climate zones--from tropical to dry to highland. Following is an obvious succeeding question: "What are the world's hottest places?" Did you know that (as of date of publication anyhow) the hottest day on earth had been 136.4 degrees Fahrenheit in Al Azizyah, Libya.

Or, "Why do the Lapps keep herds of reindeer?"(Pages 18-19) Or, "Why do the people of the Netherlands build so many dikes?" Or "Why do people around the world dress differently?" Or "What musical instruments do different people play?"

As one might guess, an ancillary benefit of this book is introducing kids to diversity in its many forms, coming to learn that people behave very differently in different areas of the world.

All in all, a solid entry in the series. This would be received well by younger kids.
