I feel sort of bad giving this book a low rating, since there really wasn’t anything bad about it. It’s just that neither I, nor my son, enjoyed reading it. It was dry in the way it presented the information, and I was surprised at some of the things that weren’t included in the text. We ended up skipping parts of it, and barely got to the end. Definitely not an engaging book for someone my son’s age (8). Or someone my age, either, for that matter. ( )
