Reviews
Stunning photographs and fascinating details combine to describe some of the most incredible wonders of our world. Each book starts with a broad description of the landmark and then goes into more detail on the top ten. The history and/or science behind its creation and other amazing facts are included. A broad perspective on the wonders is offered, helping readers fully understand global issues. Although the vocabulary is challenging and multiple information bubbles could distract some readers, youngsters will surely be attracted to these books. Bibliography. Glossary. Websites. Table of Contents. Index. - Kasey Garrison, Library Science Doctoral Student, Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia Library Media Connection March/April 2012 Issue Starred Review, The tallest buildings in the world are shown in colorful two page spreads with informative text, photographs, and text boxes with additional facts. Each of the tallest skyscrapers is presented in an interesting manner, although in no particular order. The history of skyscrapers, and important buildings in the past are also featured. In the light of advancing terrorism, the future and safety of these towers is also discussed. This is a good introduction to skyscraper architecture. More detailed information would need to be obtained additional sources. Text features also include Table of Contents, Glossary, Additional Sources including books and internet sites, and Index. -Diane Cox, Field Club School Omaha Public Schools 1/23/2013

    Seller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.

    The first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
