School Library Journal
Gr 4-6-Beautifully illustrated with full-color photos taken by the author, these titles are not only informative but also quite readable. Each volume discusses the origins, history, ecosystems, geology, wildlife, and highlights of the park. A section on future challenges such as overcrowding and development is appended. Useful as introductions, these overviews provide more information than other series such as "National Parks" (Capstone), "True Books" (Children's Press), and "Vision Books" (The Child's World).-Doris Losey, Tampa-Hillsborough County Public Library, Tampa, FL Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
