Review by Horn Book Review

"Fast facts" begin chapters on the physical features, land and climate, history and government, economy, and people of Egypt and Kenya. Maps, color photos and prints, boxed asides, and a recipe form a thorough, if dry, country overview. The fill-in-the-blanks coverage is rather mechanical, but report writers will find the books in this series helpful. A time line is included. Bib., glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2010.
