Editorial Review

SLJ Review of Curious about the Great Outdoors

Cover: Curious about the Great Outdoors

Outdoor activities can bring joy and a sense of accomplishment to those who participate, no matter the time of year. From rock climbing to freshwater fishing, canoeing to duck hunting, these titles provide readers with background and safety information while encouraging them to be curious about the great outdoors. Each title includes three short chapters with short paragraphs, full-page photographs with captions, and “Did you know?” facts. Sections throughout pose questions such as “What is Geocaching?” and “How Do I Find the Cache?” (Geocaching). Vocabulary words are in a bold, contrasting color, and infographics show maps and supplies for each activity. Back matter includes more questions to ask, how to search for answers, additional sources, how to share and take action, a glossary, and an index. While each activity should be done with the supervision of a knowledgeable adult, the information is meant to be accessible to young readers. VERDICT For readers who want to enjoy the outdoors or read about it at home.
