Getting a child's attention is hard enough, but holding it is the real challenge. This exciting series takes young readers to the farthest reaches of the Solar System, to every corner of the globe, back to the ancient myths of Greece and Rome, and inside the circuitry of the walls in their homes. Organized by themes like space and animals, packed with color photographs and specially commissioned illustrations, varied in article types from poems to biographies, and written at the appropriate level, this stimulating reference set for ages 7-11 will build the foundation of a lifelong journey of learning.
