I am sure young readers will enjoy this story about the Frenchman who was looking for the illusive Northwest Passage. --Mint Valley ESSeries Review--"This series will be very helpful to the 5th graders at our school because explorers are part of the curriculum."--Mint Valley ElementarySeries Review--"This series' titles will provide attractive overview resources for that ubiquitous explorer report. the set has a unified old manuscript appearance with pages printed with full bleeds. Each of the handsome two-page layouts serves as a chapter with one page devoted to illustrations: maps, photos, or drawings from stock archival sources. A summarizing timeline, and index are included."--Library Talk.
