A Kid's Review

This review is from: Guatemala (Countries of the World (Capstone)) (Library Binding)

I used this for a report on Guatemala for school. I checked it out of a local library. I think its was very useful, but it could have been more understandable for us kids (I had to have my Mom explain a lot of things; and I'm 12). But, all in all, this was pretty useful to me.

And PS, I dont know if the older statement before mine is true, I did them and found them quite interesting, really.
