PSLA Review of Country Explorers

This reader had the opportunity to review A Visit to Thailand. In the context of a trip to a foreign country, this simply written, compact book gives young readers a mini-tour of the famous sites. With accompanying color photographs and easy-to-read text, students can identify different landmarks, festivals, and the physical geography of the land. Includes glossary and index.

THOUGHTS: This series is an additional purchase for primary grades with lessons about countries around the globe. Though interesting and well written, this purchase would only be necessary when the curriculum calls for it in younger grades.
