Gr 5 Up—This busy effort will appeal to list lovers. The glittery cover hints at the excitement to come within. There's no resting the eyes here: lists, fact boxes, and photographs abound, with no absolutely no empty spaces. The volume is broken up into 10 sections, including mechanical marvels, the animal kingdom, and epic structures. Each section concludes with a word search, multiple-choice quiz, invitation to readers to come up with their own list, and other puzzles. Answers to the puzzles and two indexes (categorical and alphabetical) complete the text. Though this chatty, loud presentation isn't appropriate for research purposes, it's lots of fun.—Anne Chapman Callaghan, Racine Public Library, WI
