These books give a brief look at the people, landscape, and animals of each country. The simple texts are limited to short, choppy statements that provide little information and rely primarily on generalizations. However, the series will be a useful teaching aid as a springboard for discussion. Colorful photos enhance the text. A project is included in each. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.

My First Look at Countries series.
This cursory look at Australia touches on its people, landscape, and animals. Intended for a young audience, the text is sketchy and disjointed and the content is limited. It would be best used with an adult giving additional information and clarifying possible misconceptions. Colorful photos enhance the simple text. An art project is included. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
