I did not like this book very much. First reason I did not like this book was because of the long paragraphs that were on each page. For example, there were at least 2 paragraphs on each page. Another example was that the paragraphs were all written in the same font. The second reason I didn’t like the book was because the illustrations were only constrained to one page. For example, the words would be on one page and the pictures would be on the other. There really wasn’t a big message of this book. The message I took was I learned more about Mexico’s history.
