(4) K-3 Explorers! series. These simple, basic biographies explain the origins, drives, and discoveries of the three featured explorers, as well as their violent (or in the case of Cabot, mysterious) ends. Although the books don't contain a lot of information, they will prove useful to report writers, especially those who struggle with reading. Photos, maps, and (sometimes blurry) reproductions appear throughout. Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Explorers! titles: John Cabot, La Salle, and Vasco Núñez.
