. . .This series offers the very basics. Each title is divided into about a dozen spreads, each of which focuses on a single subject (where a tribe lived, what it ate, gender roles, and so on). The verso contains the text while the recto features a captioned illustration. The text is rendered in a plain font and reads in short, declarative sentences. Occasional “Did You Know?” sidebars offer tidbits. . . . Stunning, high-resolution photographs marry well with the text and make each title instantly attention-grabbing. Simple and solid introductions.
