School Library Journal Review
| Gr 2 Up--Readers will have fun learning about how humans have fun. This covers the chronological history of a variety of games. The video game histories are likely to be the biggest draw for this series; luckily four types of video games are covered in their own volumes. Inventors, notable innovators, and companies are included in these histories, as well as a short discussion of where these types of games are now. Fans of each type of game may be left wanting more information. These histories are short and simple, since they are written at a second grade reading level for a wide audience from second to eighth grade. VERDICT Purchase where needed for hi-lo readers. |
