(4) 4-6 Exploring Continents series. After explaining what a continent is, the book gives a cursory introduction to Australia's geography, climate, wildlife, natural resources, people (persecution of Aboriginals isn't mentioned), and landmarks. Many captioned photos, small maps (New Zealand is on the map but presented ambiguously in the text), and sidebars are included. The book could serve as a very basic introduction to the subject. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
