(4) K-3 Illustrated by Gijsbert van Frankenhuyzen. Random facts about the Smithsonian are presented through awkward, content-lite poems ("F is for First Ladies / wearing a special dress, / celebrating at a ball / their husbands' success") and more useful sidebars. Textured paintings effectively illustrate the information.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
