Inside the US Army is an attractively organized book that is full of information. It begins with a description of the army, its training and equipment and ends with the future of the army (robots, computers, etc.). There is a labeled diagram of an infantry soldier and gear as well as a bulleted page of army history.

Typical nonfiction features (table of contents, text boxes, index and glossary) are clearly organized. Further reading resources include both books and internet materials.

Soldiers pictured are varied ethnicity and sex, which is encouraging for young readers. This book is part of the US Armed Forces series and a solid addition for the younger readers in your library.
