The sentence structure is simple, and unfamiliar or difficult words are repeated. Large, color photographs face pages with one to three sentences of text that is very basic, almost boring in its simplicity. The average-quality illustrations support the information. Libraries looking for easy-reader nonfiction report sources will find that these titles fill the need as well as similar titles.-Carolyn Janssen, Children's Learning Center of the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, OH Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.\ \
