In each, a young narrator walks readers through brief sections on location, landscape, weather, family life, demographics, food, schools, customs, and landmarks. The basic information is well organized; the bright layouts will engage readers. Britain is less detailed than other volumes in the series. "Fast Facts" are appended. Reading list, websites.
