Christopher Columbus: Famous Explorer

48 pp. | Enslow | January, 2003 | Library ISBN 0-7660-2066-5 $$18.95
(4) K-3 Explorers! series. Each of the books in this series provides some biographical information, but the focus is on the exploration, the time period, and the geography. The choppy text is illustrated with archival pictures and maps. The illustrations make the fairly dry texts somewhat more inviting, but their captions are sometimes confusing. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Explorers! titles: Christopher Columbus, Ferdinand Magellan, Hernán Cortés, and Lewis and Clark.]
