Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 2-5--This introduction to the Internet is easy to read and attractive. The book explains very simply, yet clearly, how networks operate, what function servers play, URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) and addresses, search and retrieval tools, and the parts of the Internet (e-mail, chat sessions, and newsgroups). Safety tips and cautions are also presented. The colorful photographs include clearly reproduced screens from Netscape. A brief glossary, bibliography, and a list of six web sites of special interest to children are appended. A good starting place for young surfers who wish to venture into cyberspace.
