This colorful series features individual books that each focus on a specific area or topic about the Renaissance period. Breaking up the themes like this gives more room to devote to specific topics without making books so large they would intimidate younger readers. Each book has a double-column text format, with plenty of maps, paintings, old relics, and various photographs and sketches. Captions explain the graphics and add a lot of interest to the books, while small text boxes provide especially entertaining or unique information throughout the pages. Each book stays pretty focused on sharing the facts you would assume it contained from the title, but a little bit of general history about the time period is also thrown into each book. Whether you’re interested in a specific area of the Renaissance or are looking for general history, this series from Crabtree Press does a great job of concisely covering topics in an interesting way that younger students will appreciate. Each book is 32 pgs, pb. ~ Rachel
