This Blastoff! Readers, Scholastic, nonfiction book will give simplistic information to the elementary age student about food,  holidays religion, wildlife, etc. of the country Saudi Arabia.  Complete with color pictures the format is colorful and interesting to look at.  Fun facts are interspersed in the form of colorful captions with interesting tid bits of information. This series comes with the glossary, index, and further reading list complete with websites.  A new feature to me, called www.websurfer.com was featured at the back of he book, but the site was offline when I tried to access it.  The intent is to give further information, similar to the www.facthound.com site.
