Review # 1 was written on 2012-05-24 00:00:00 Alessio Mongardi I have to admit, I'm predisposed to like the idea of using alphabet books to teach science! This is aimed at slightly older kids, and uses primarily geological terms, one or two of which I hadn't actually heard of. ("Kame", for example, which is a ridge of sand or gravel deposited by a glacier. Now you know.) Truth is, I'd give it three stars if it weren't for the very first entry - A for Antarctica. Asimov is clearly being tongue-in-cheek when he says nothing lives there but penguins and scientists, but I'm not sure kids will pick up on the fact that it's bollocks, and I tend to side-eye books that teach kids wrong science on purpose... even if it is because the author's trying to be funny.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-08-06 00:00:00 Daniel Salazar Cheesy, but informative. (But not pefect, as that three-word description might indicate.)
