Marco Polo

(4) K-3 Zoom In on Pioneering Explorers series. These three biographies highlight international exploration (Ferdinand Magellan; Marco Polo) and exploration of the American West (Lewis and Clark). The scant introductory volumes, which align to Common Core Standards, raise more questions than answers, but they may spark interest in further research. Paintings, drawings, and stock photographs accompany the mundane texts. Lists of quick stats and key dates are appended. Glos., ind. Review covers the following Zoom In on Pioneering Explorers titles: Ferdinand Magellan, Lewis and Clark, and Marco Polo.
