A beautiful little book...Fun and Informative. A very nice, colorful offering, one in a series...clever little tidbits of information and some nice imagery. Worth a look.
Great, general overview with fun pictures and text Super little book that gives an overview of Russia - it hits the highlights and has a cute layout.
Very cute. I recommend it to anyone who's adopted a child from Russia.
Kids remember Russia! We adopted a 5 & 10 yr. from Russia last year and they just got this book. Both were excited to see things they remember from Russia, especially our older one! She talked excitedly about the pictures in this book. It was an easy enough 'read' for even the little guy to listen to. Good book to remember Russian heritage.
Great adoption gift!! My children have received several copies of this great book! I finally convinced them to sell one. They love seeing things that came from their native land.
Excellent teaching tool! The Harvey "Look What Comes From..." series is an excellent teaching tool as well as a VERY ENTERTAINING read for its intended audience! Mr. Harvey is able to convey the important aspects of a land, it's people and its culture in a way that easily draws in young readers. In the previous critique, the THICKNESS OF THE PAGE is used to justify 3 stars!?! Disregard that review. Trust that if you purchase this, and any of the other "Look What Comes From.." series you're purchasing excellent quality material that will benefit any grade school aged child!
