Reviews
Grade 4-7. This book's subtitle says it all, although the "encyclopedia" appellation is a bit of an overstatement. Through inquiries in three general subject areas?"World of the Past," "The Living World," and "Our Earth"?information is presented on selected areas of natural history and geology. The oversized format gives the pages a clean, uncluttered look. The many full-color drawings and photographs are carefully captioned and page layouts are varied enough to prevent monotony. Occasional two-page spreads place text overtop lightly drawn illustrations, which makes it difficult to read. While browsers will be captivated, report writers or those who want in-depth information on a subject will need to look elsewhere. The answers are clear, but necessarily brief. A surprisingly detailed index does give good access to the material for those interested in specific topics. If question-and-answer books like the "Charlie Brown...Super Book of Questions and Answers" series (Random House; o.p.) are popular, this title will have broad appeal.?Elaine Fort Weischedel, Turner Free Library, Randolph, MA
