"The reference guide and index is very helpful allowing fast access to information. I loved the fact that The Encyclopedias have everything...

The titles and spotlights are catchy. (touch me nots) for the porcupines!) I love the text too, kids need to find strong quality in books too, they are competing against computers and many books do not have the ability to do this. You can find something here in a shorter time than you can on a computer for the most part. The articles are well written, broad and general. Students can understand the meaning, it's clear. The photos are dynamite!"
