Synopsis
The Middle East captures the richness and diversity of Middle Eastern culture, and places the region in its global context in a way that no other reference has done for this age group. By examining a wide range of themes, including religion resources, history, politics, and current affairs, and the embarking on a country-by-country examination, The Middle East is an excellent companion to any discussion of current news or social and political events.

From School Library Journal
Grade 4-7–A concise overview of the history and culture of the region, defined as the countries of Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, the Palestinian territories, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, the Gulf states, Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan. The text is brief but informative, and current political controversies are touched on in an age-appropriate and evenhanded manner. Go further... sidebars offer suggested readings, definitions, and museums. A chart with basic facts and statistics about each country is appended. However, the real strength of this book is the appealing graphic design and the excellent-quality color photographs throughout. This would be a good choice for middle graders or reluctant readers doing research on this subject, though students needing more in-depth information would be better served by individual titles in the Enchantment of the World series (Children's Press).–Kathleen E. Gruver, Burlington County Library, Westampton, NJ
