The main purpose of this book is to inform the readers about the state Wyoming. I liked this book because of the writing and language. This informational text is very simplistic. It makes it easier for readers to take in a large amount of information without feeling overwhelmed. It also makes it easy for students to find information. For example a section of the text says, “ Wyoming is the 10th largest state but it is the state with the fewest people. This makes for wide spaces and lots of land for the cattle to graze. It is rugged but a beautiful land .” I also liked that the writing did not have too much extensive detail. It allows for the reader to understand the broad idea without feeling overwhelmed by the amount of information. ( )
