- School Library Journal Reviews : SLJ: Series Made Simple Fall 2017
Gr 3â5âReaders tour each state's most notable landmarks, from state capitols to iconic statues to an assortment of kid-friendly museums, living history sites, zoos, and quirky festivals and fairs that celebrate everything from "punkin chunkin" in Delaware to UFO mania in Roswell, NM. Each book highlights the people, history, economy, and culture that makes each state unique. Throughout the series, spreads consist of three to four paragraphs, a photo of the featured place, and a drawn state map for reference. Much of the design of the series follows a road tripâthemed look (street signs for chapter headings). However, the photos, often low-quality stock images, are a weakness.
