Gr. 5-8. These two titles from the History of the World series offer basic introductory information suitable for middle-school report writers. Egypt discusses the relationship between pharaohs and gods, customs for burial and worship, the history of the Egyptian empire, and modern discoveries of artifacts from this ancient culture. Constitution covers the development and ratification of this important document and the Bill of Rights, including insight into its relevance today. Both titles make use of relatively large print, short chapters with section headings, and frequent, crisp, mostly color illustrations. Each book is appended with notes, bibliography, glossary, and picture credits. Constitution, in particular, is very up-to-date, with a discussion of the Electoral College and the 2000 election. Unfortunately, many of the source notes come from secondary sources, and the bibliographies lean heavily toward the author's own works. Consider these acceptable choices for larger collections or where demand for these topics is high. Kay Weisman
