Gr 5-9-These books focus on aspects of the war such as specific geographic areas or the weapons used. Each title also has two "Closer Look" features about specific topics such as the use of propaganda or how the black market sprang up in response to wartime rationing. The text is supported by photos, maps, and infographics along with helpful captions. Reflection questions appear several times within each book as well as a comprehension quiz in the back matter, along with an answer key. There is also online support for teachers including lesson plans and activities. VERDICT A series that will circulate often and be especially useful for class units on the war and its effects.?(c) Copyright 2011.
