Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Art and Entertainment in Ancient Africa
Baby Professor · 2017
58/100
👎 Skip It
This Baby Professor title fills a real curriculum gap, and for teachers with few alternatives it may be worth having on the shelf. But the series is high-volume and lightly vetted, with no independent critical review to confirm the historical accuracy of this particular installment. The format is serviceable but unlikely to spark genuine wonder — it supplements rather than inspires.
