Bringing culture studies to the middle grades, each book in Carolrhoda's Globe-trotters Club series gives readers fun and factual information on a country's most important aspects. Each title also examines its landforms and major ethnic groups. Each two-page spread -- supported by full-color photographs and eye-catching sidebars -- is self-contained for easy reading and reporting.
JoAnn, the author, has done an excellent job in presenting the island of Puerto Rico to a young reading audience with this book. She covers the history and the culture in a manner that is simple and yet very informative and fun to read. One of my kids found the book very helpful in doing a report paper for her 5th grade class. I have recommended this book to many of my friends and colleagues who have young children.
