Can’t go wrong with DK!

[Mansour S منصور السدحان]

A DK Eyewitness book. When the subject isn’t something with human history in it, these books are amazing. Otherwise they can be highly biased regarding historical stuff. As a kid I owned only few and wished I had all of them. They’re Google Image search before Google.
Anyway, nice book.

DK does a good job of making informational books. Lots of information and loads of great pictures, all with descriptions and/or labels so you know what your's looking at.

This one was an easy read but that still contained a lot of good information. As much as I've studied animals in my life, I actually did not know that the scientific name for the Lowlands Gorilla was gorilla gorilla gorilla. A little redundant, but at least it's easy to remember!

OK I know these are supposed to be kid books but they are awesome! Great pictures and just enough text to make you want to learn more. Great choices for a beginning history reader or to start an older reader out in a new area. Every time I pick one of these up and read it I learn new things. Highly Recommended
