Your Passport to El Salvador

"This series examines life in other countries. Six chapters of varying lengths describe daily life (such as church bells ringing in France), history, religion, and landscape through photographs and multiple paragraphs. Infographics and maps showcase important facts and where the country is found. The text often uses descriptive language, providing an immersive experience. Recipes are listed as well as popular sports, endangered animals, and specific landforms. The overall design of the series can be bland, but it helps balance out the information given to readers. The final pages include a glossary and further reading, which can be accessed online or in a book. VERDICT A good introductory series for mid-elementary readers who are interested in exploring the world."
