Explorer's News is a colorful and informative presentation of major explorers in world history. This would be a great read for any child interested in history and people. I am a teacher and have found this book a great source for my world history students. Stories are written in a news style format with pictures and maps that relate to the events described. The news stories are easy to read and accurate. Mr. Johnstone tells the stories of the Polynesians, Erikson, Columbus, Magellan, Peary and others in brief eyewitness accounts of their experiences. I wouls suggest the title to both young readers curious about their world and to older readers seeking a concise and interesting acount of exploration.
