ISBN: 9781625882011 Author: Dicker, Katie (Author) Publisher: Appleseed Editions Published: January 2015 Retail: $31.35 OUR PRICE: $3.09 You Save 90% Binding Type: Library Binding Annotation: Gr 3–5—This set takes on mysteries and phenomenon of all kinds, from UFOs and aliens to psychics, ghosts, and a milk-drinking statue. Wide ranging and sketchy, sometimes difficult or just dull, some of these hang together a bit better than others. The mysterious places, creatures, and space visitors are heavily covered in other sources. Plentiful photographs on shaded pages in varied tones accompany black-and-white text, the black sometimes hard to read on dark backgrounds. Questions are inserted for critical thinking. Varied websites are appended, but no further print sources are listed. VERDICT There are intriguing bits here and there for quick reading or browsing. Missing! and Mysterious Messages are the strongest of the lot. |
