HIT #2: HS country book series

[Melinda White <mwhite@MAIL.TUMWATER.K12.WA.US>]

Oops--I missed one in my earlier "HIT".  It's a great, detailed response,
once more affirming the "Cultures of the World" series.

I really like Marshall Cavendish's _Cultures of the world_ series.  I have most of
them now.
Good, solid information.  Up to date.  128 pp.  Good illustrations, maps.  Readable
by all but my poorest readers, but not condescending to my better ones.  (A
tough line to draw, IMHO, and Marshall Cavendish has done this very well.)
$15.99 ea.  Strong bindings;  attractive, "un-busy" covers;  series stands out well
on the shelves, especially two or three together.  Good titles -- easy to catalog
and access:  title of book is the name of the  country, period.  No finding the
name of the country deep into the title.  Kids use one title, they'll be back for
more!
