This review is from: Alaska (From Sea to Shining Sea) (Paperback)

My child has always loved Alaska. His first book fettish was "Oil Spill," about the Exxon-Valdez disaster. It was natural that he chose Alaska for research in grammar school This book was simple, too the point, and had full color pictures that added to his understanding. All the highlights were included that he needed - history, geography, people, flags, cultures,. . . Highly recommend for grade school students.
