Media Reviews
'This is a fascinating approach to geography, packed with information on every page. Children must really learn to apply the facts, which means they have to think about the consequences every step of the way. It's quite a challenge and each possible answer sets the reader off in a different direction, making the book just as enjoyable on a second or third visit.' Parents in touch 'The books are likely to appeal to children who enjoy puzzles, adventure-based stories, challenge and computer games.' The English Association
