Don't Know Much about the 50 States

(4) K-3 Don't Know Much series. Illustrated by Renee Andriani. The states are introduced in alphabetical order, usually one per page, with each entry listing the state's nickname, capital, flower, bird, and year it entered the union. Other information is presented in a sometimes clumsy question-and-answer format ("Where in Kentucky can you find eyeless fish and blind beetles?"). The text also contains some weak jokes, which is in keeping with the accompanying cartoonlike illustrations.
