What's It Like to Live In...? series.
This country snapshot briefly covers such topics as the Canadian landscape, weather, homes, industry, and festivals. Newly independent readers will garner some basic information from the simple, easy-to-read text and minimally captioned color photos, but the overall presentation is slight. A scrapbook section of random "things you might find in Canada" and list of Canadian words are appended. Glos., ind.

Changing Face Of series.
Photographs by
Chris Fairclough.
After an introduction to Toronto and key country facts, chapters superficially focus on Canada's history, land, and resources, as well as changes in population, work and home life, and environment. Small photos and "In Their Own Words" text boxes (purported quotes from citizens) enhance the overview. Map, reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
