4-6My Weird School Fast Facts series.
Illustrated by
Jim Paillot.
Funny, irreverent Arlo and studious Andrea take turns narrating this book of basic geography lessons and weird facts. Seven chapters cover planet Earth; the continents; water; mountains, deserts, and forests; the fifty United States; and natural disasters. Although the narrative sometimes reads like a simple list of facts, young readers will love the silly humor and black-and-white cartoons in each section.
