4.0 out of 5 stars Bite-sized history, June 15, 2000
By Greg Kochanski (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews
It's a neat bit of history, told well for kids in a bite-size package. It takes one of those obscure facts that we all have rattling around in our heads from High school ("Yeah. Gulf stream.... warm water...") and fleshes it out into a nifty little story with excellent illustrations.

My second grader could read it (though I think she missed some of the historical context).

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Story, Good Science, June 5, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Mysterious Ocean Highway: Benjamin Franklin and the Gulf Stream (Turnstone Ocean Pilot Book) (Hardcover)
This is an important subject that is only mysterious because people think it's boring or too hard to understand. Deborah Heiligman changes that with a very interesting story that will have your second-grader knowing more than even a lot of scientists.
