Description
Infographics are a neat way to represent information. The visual element appeals to a variety of learners. From early homo sapiens in Africa about 200,000 years ago, to transportation and world languages, students study colorful charts and graphs to glean information. I liked the helpful glossary at the end. It's the kind of book a student would just pick up and read again and again. Other topics with data include: most populated cities, drinking water, natural resources, minerals, trash, inventions, power sources, and the internet. Secular and evolutionary perspective is emphasized. ~Sara
