(4) K-3 Countries We Come From series. In a visually attractive but superficial introductory series, each volume begins with fairly vague descriptive words (e.g., "Huge," "Historic," "Stunning") paired with bright photos. A smattering of facts about geography, animals, history, language, jobs, culture, and food follow, accompanied by engaging photos. Although a child appears on each cover, no personalizing anecdotes are included. "Fast facts" appended. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Countries We Come From titles: Russia, England, Germany, and Ukraine.
