What the critics say
"Written to meet new standards that introduce ancient cultures in the early grades, these books share a common format.... Each book's four chapters introduce the country's culture and describe its people's daily lives, major achievements, and eventual decline or conquest. Captions provide nearly as much information as the text, and some ask questions to guide reading or elicit critical thinking. Each book includes a...retelling of the culture's creation story or important folklore. Although not exceptional, these books provide basic introductory information and a good...history of each culture's material treasures, making them strong additional purchases for elementary schools." (School Library Journal, Series Made Simple)
