Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Kindergarten-Grade 3-These retellings of Bible stories follow the original closely. The language is easy to understand and the text is inviting for children to read themselves. Attractively designed, the books feature bright, realistic watercolor illustrations on lots of white space and characters that look to be Middle Eastern. The art captures the emotions and the period. Moses ends with the "Burning Bush" and before the "Exodus" but the other two books tell the stories in their entirety. Notes give further information and discussion questions. Adequate selections for the beginning-to-read set.

From Booklist

Reviewed with Alex Stewart's Sending a Letter.

Gr. 3-5. Two titles in the Everyday History series offer brief histories that recount how these everyday activities have evolved. Cooking a Meal deals with a variety of culinary matters, from mammoth hunters and Babylonian farmers to convenience foods and modern kitchens. Sending a Letter is a historical view of communication, from messengers and smoke signals to e-mail and faxes. Both books feature large print, numerous illustrations, and frequent sidebars that will pique browsers' interests. The writing style is clear, but there's some British bias in addresses, food brands, and a few other areas. Each book has a time line, a glossary, and a bibliography. Useful for report writers.
