  • Great book

    Good condition, love the series. Sometimes you have to check the book facts as they seem a bit over zealous to claim things for their state (as we all are at times) :). They are beautifully illustrated and most of the information is correct and not hum drum. It is a book that can be used for older learners or small children.
