(4) PS World Around Us series. This series uses a question-and-answer approach to provide information for pre-readers. Questions a young child might ask (e.g., "How deep is an ocean?") guide each text. Most of the answers are too brief and simple to satisfy a curious preschooler, but the books do offer a good starting point for shared reading. Colorful photos provide added interest. Glos., ind. Review covers these World Around Us titles: What Is a Forest?, What Is a River?, What Is an Ocean?, and What Is the Sky?.
