(4) K-3 See More Readers series. Dramatic color photographs will draw independent readers to this book, but minimal supporting information is frustrating and at times misleading. For example, the text states: "Lassen Peak in California and Mount Pelée in Martinique are lava dome volcanoes." But it doesn't indicate where in the world the less familiar Martinique is. Overall, this is an adequate introduction. The paperback edition includes removable fact cards.
