As a homeschooling mom I'm always looking for books like this. It is the kind of book my kids will pick up because it looks fun, inside and out. And yet, it's chock full of "vitamins and minerals." It reinforces the "boring" stuff they learn, but the look of the book is cartoon-y enough to hook them. They end up learning more because it's fun.The book is divided into sections with different subjects represented: English, History, Geography, Science, Math and even a section called "Out of School" with two sections: General Knowledge and Music. They really pack a lot of information in there in such a compact little book, it's amazing.*whispering* (Don't tell anyone, but Mom enjoys reading it, too!)
