We got our son a few of the DK Reader books for Christmas and he loves them. The Bermuda Triangle was a bit challenging for his reading level (should have stuck with level 2), but we both had a great time reading it together. It taught us both about what the Bermuda Triangle is, gave us a few different stories about ships and planes that had gone down in the Triangle and others who got out and suggestions as to what might be going on there. We will buy many more of these books, they are well worth the price.

It gives a good bit of information on the bermuda thus it has quickly become a favorite of my sons!

I have many, many DK readers in all levels and this is the first I am dissapointed in. Yes it tells about the Bermuda Triangle, but it has some distrubing pictures. The description says for 7 and up or 2nd grade. Well I bought this for my 9 year old and am returning it because of the pictures. The most distrubing pictures are when they talk about it being a grave yard. There is a ship with blood just pooling out into the water and then on the next page is a picture of a skeleton/ghost - very distrubing. Now if you like that really freaky halloween stuff then the picture won't bother you, but as an adult I had trouble looking at the picture. I will try to post some picture so you can decide for yourself. The pictures could have been done differently.
