(4) 4-6 Exploring Continents series. After defining continent, the book gives a general introduction to North America's geography, climate, wildlife, natural resources, people, and landmarks--a tall order for thirty-two pages. A sense of proportion is lacking (e.g., a paragraph each for Mexican jumping beans and Native Americans), but the book could serve as a very general introduction. Photos, small maps, and sidebars are included. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
