Editorial Reviews
Gr 3-6--Two photo-essays that feature clearly written texts and crystal clear, full-color pictures. All of the photos give a fine sense of the people, their lives, and their land. Vikings shows the daily lives of children today in five different areas settled by the Vikings, including the Faeroes, Iceland, Gotland, land, and Lofoten. Each island is unique, but the people have a common bond of language, culture, and history. Maps of early Viking explorations and a brief history of their travels are included. Staub realistically portrays what life is like today for children living in Cuba, and offers a short history of the island and a description of the many racial groups that settled there. The narrative explains the differences in the lives of the people since the Castro revolution, such as universal health care and education, also mentioning briefly the influence of communism and the impact of severe shortages of gasoline and machinery parts. Readers will enjoy seeing the day-to-day activities of the children as they go to school, help with chores, and play games. Two attractive purchases to supplement standard geography books.
