Welcome to My Country series.
In addition to the geography, history, politics, and economics of the country, the cursory text of each book describes distinctive characteristics, traditions, and favorite pastimes such as Norwegians love of the outdoors, colorful Ukrainian pysanky eggs, and cycling in Denmark. The color and clarity of the captioned illustrations are noteworthy. Maps, reading list, websites. Glos., ind.

Countries of the World series.
Information about geography, history, lifestyle, religion, economy, and politics is provided in these two series books. A "Closer Look" section of alphabetically listed entries with details specific to each country follows an overview of general topics. Long sidebars and captions for the bright color photos make the presentations somewhat choppy. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Countries of the World titles: Denmark and Ukraine.]
