Reviewed by Horn Book Guide Reviews (Horn Book Guide Reviews 2003 Spring) The books in this series provide readers with brief overviews of complex problems. Double-page spreads include several paragraphs of bland text and color photos. Experiments and sidebars about ""How you can help"" fail to do justice to such intricate problems. While some experiments seem suited to young children, other suggestions, such as volunteering to help clean birds after oil spills, are more appropriate for young adults. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Our Planet in Peril titles: [cf2]Global Warming, Acid Rain, Oil Spills[cf1], and [cf2]Nuclear Waste[cf1].] Copyright 2003 Horn Book Guide Reviews |
