Review by Horn Book Review

Well-organized and accessible chapters cover each state's geography, wildlife, history, economy, people, and government. Lists of important dates in history and of cultural events, an activity or craft, and a related recipe and song round out the volumes. Photographs break up the text. Report writers will find the books informative (Louisana doesn't cover 2005's Hurricane Katrina, however). Reading list, websites. Ind. [Review covers these It's My State! titles: Louisiana, Michigan, Ohio, Maine, Tennessee, and Oklahoma.] (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
