Budgeting, Spending, and Saving
A suitable but unexceptional series.
These books cover basic topics to help readers make wise personal
financial choices. The informative texts emphasize economic ideas,
including the relationship between wants and needs,
and clarify differences between various financial tools, such as
money market accounts and certificates of deposit. The accessible
design employs photos, graphs, and other graphics, all of which aid
in comprehension. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers
these Searchlight Books: How Do We Use Money? titles: Budgeting,
Spending, and Saving, Earning Income, Growing Your
Money, and Understanding Credit.
Bus Drivers
Though honoring unsung heroes is a laudable intention, this series is confusingly written.
Apps: From Concept to Consumer
Despite a few flaws, these titles are recommended for their in-depth descriptions of the histories of different careers.
What Is a Graphic Novel?
Overly general, these books won't connect with readers.
Two-page chapters introduce graphic novels to those unfamiliar with
the text type, briefly discuss their relationship to comic books,
and highlight various styles (e.g., ligne claire, comic
bookstyle, manga). "Write your own" boxes provide useful craft
tips, and images from graphic novels provide meaningful examples
throughout. Graphic novelwriting activities are appended. Reading
list. Glos., ind.
Art Installations
An entertaining book that will have students crowding around. Unsettling in the best of ways.
