Gr 2-4-Each title in the series focuses on a famous castle. Starting with the creation of each structure, short paragraphs detail the castle, who resided there, and who can visit it today. Full-page art and photography are featured, and vocabulary words are bolded in a different color. Small infographics and renderings of historical figures are captioned and overlaid on the pictures of the castles. Titles weave the history of the country, people, and culture. The back matter includes a section with additional facts, glossary, index, and online activities for kids. VERDICT A great nonfiction read for elementary readers who enjoy castles around the world.
