Editorial Reviews

K-Gr 2—An immersive online platform accompanies this series, which allows readers to access titles in eight different languages. Using a unique code found in each book, the easy-to-navigate site features text-to-speech, as well as the ability to change the language to Spanish, Hindi, and Chinese, among others. This format lets the full-page photographs shine, and it is easy to see these ebooks being used for research by early elementary students. On their own, the books vary in detail and quality and suffer from a lack of text features. The animal titles focus heavily on life cycle but have no information on diet and habitat, and while the continent series comprehensively covers the geography, wildlife, and cultures found in each location, it would benefit from charts and an index. VERDICT A powerful online platform makes these books a recommended purchase where there is a need for ebooks in multiple languages.
