Gr 1-3 This visually appealing series includes a diagram of the inside of Tutankhamun's tomb, an explanation of how peat bogs are formed, and a drawing indicating the phases of construction at Stonehenge.

In some casessightings of ghost ships, a cursed tombcritical judgment can be suspended in favor of tantalizing exposition. Each volume concludes with a sequence of reflection prompts, such as "What do the mummies' burials tell you about them?" or "Why did dinosaurs die out?"
