Review
A textbook that won't bore kids! ... fun, easy-to-read "journal" ... stimulating, funny, kid-friendly, and detailed look [at Canada].
Starred review: Wow Canada truly lives up to its name!
Educational, in the nicest way possible, but it's also fun -- lots of fun.
Bright, information-packed ... all but guarantees to stir pride in the hearts of the toughtest of the pre-teen set.
The thoughtful and humorous presentation distinguishes this book from others on the subject ... A lively, valuable addition. -- Betsy Fraser "School Library Journal" (04/01/2000)
"Wow Canada!" gives an entertaining look into this diverse land of ours.
A colorful scrapbook design features notes, color photos, Guy's cartoons, and other mementos.
A large-format Canadian book that provides a flavorful alternative to the often bland travel books for children. -- Carolyn Phelan "Booklist" (02/15/2000)
