Gr 3-5--As with past titles in the series, readers can explore various countries around the world all from their armchair. Every title has about six chapters of varying lengths written to let children feel as though they are actually visiting each country. As in preceding titles, each book describes the daily life, history, religion, and landscape using multiple paragraphs paired with photographs. Maps inform readers about the country's location and infographic side panels highlight necessary information. Endangered animal species are shared along with recipes, such as preparing nopales or prickly pear cacti in Mexico (Your Passport to Mexico), in addition to holidays and celebrations in each country. Although the overall design is the same for every country it does not distract from the amount of information given. The final pages include a glossary and further reading that can be found online or in a book. VERDICT Still a good introduction for mid-elementary readers interested in exploring the world.
