![]() The Top and Bottom of the World (Rookie Read-About Science) $4.95 For a clear and concise introduction to very exciting parts of the world, this is the book! Unlike most children's books, it does not come with illustrations. It comes with photos. Photos very clear and specific to their subject. We see icebergs having broken off from sheets of ice three miles thick, otherwise called the North Pole. We see penguin herds flocking together, standing like men in their regal coats, at the South Pole. What surprised me (and we see a photo of it) is that moss actually grows in the Antarctic. A slice of green life. The prose is very simple, easily readable to or by children. The book itself is small -- less than the standard size. And there's a gorgeous picture on its cover of a tall archway of frozen ice and underneath it float icebergs (four of them) of sparkling white. Oh we get to read about Arctic hares, Arctic foxes and polar bears. And the people who live within the Arctic Circle: the Inuit of Canada and Alaska, the Laplanders of Northern Europe. The book is short -- only 30 pages long. Just enough to take both child and adult on a wondrous journey. ![]() Ultra Pro 3 X 4 Super Thick Topload Card Holder (25) $3.99 You can use it for baseball cards or any other small item that you want to keep safe and not have it bend! ![]() 1991 Topps NFL Football Cards Unopened Factory Set (660 different cards) - Includes Rookie Cards and cards of top NFL stars including Emmitt Smith, John Elway, Barry Sanders, Dan Marino, Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Troy Aikman, and dozens of other top superstars! $39.98 Factory sets make great gifts for sports fans young and old!
