Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
With high-quality color photographs, archival art, and several excellent, full-page maps, this highly readable, detailed overview in the Countries of the World series discusses Iran’s geography, landscape, people, cultures, government, and economy as well as its history, from ancient civilizations to contemporary religious revolution. The book’s numerous sidebars include “Women in Iran,” and the concluding “At a Glance” section offers quick-reference facts in charts, tables, and time lines. Endmatter includes a bibliography and multimedia resource list. This book’s chatty narrative, capped by a double-page spread entitled “Add a Little Extra to Your Country Report!” is clearly geared for middle-graders preparing research projects, but some older readers curious about this country in the headlines will welcome this informative overview, too. Readers beyond this book’s target age range may also want to seek out Brendan January’s The Iranian Revolution. Grades 4-8. --Hazel Rochman
