Cutaway walls reveal inner activity in illustrations that are reminiscent of Richard Scarry's work. The large images are accompanied by clear, concise descriptions of their elements. The younger children in the grade range will enjoy finding items that are hidden within the pictures, while others will appreciate the concise tidbits of information about animals, military life, and machines. Enjoyable for browsing. Monica Fleche, Union Public Library, NJ
