Reviews

"Using very simple language and only a few sentences per page, these titles introduce common tools. Each book shows the parts of the subject (which are easy to identify in close-up photos) and explains how the item is used and by whom. All the volumes include a list of safety tips at the end." --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple-- (11/1/2012 12:00:00 AM)
