(4) K-3 Science Files: Earth series. This capable series uses a magazine-style approach to conveying information. Captions, inserts, and small text blocks fleetingly explain geography, geology, inhabitants, and conservation efforts for each featured biome. The pages are a bit too busy with photos and diagrams. Each book ends with an "Amazing Facts" page providing slightly more in-depth information. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Science Files: Earth titles: Deserts, Forests, Oceans, Islands, and Mountains.]
