It’s a decent little book: sturdy binding, nice full-page color photos, solid information in clear sentences. But with it’s limited scope (32 pages, with just a couple easy sentences per page), trying to cover a vast topic like an entire continent means it’s only very basic, generalized information. The photos don’t always do as good a job of supporting the text as I would like, either (e.g. text says that lions, giraffes, and zebras live in Africa, but accompanying photo shows only zebras). Still, not bad.
