Review "In an innovative change from most state sets, these books are lively travel guides to each state's top 10 kid-friendly places. They cover an eclectic mix of historic sites such as the Ingallses's South Dakota homestead, museums, and science centers, scenic natural wonders, and popular culture favorites such as theme parks, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and iconic stops along Route 66. The authors incorporate information about state history and geography in their descriptions, which include tips on what to do, see, and eat. Sidebars add information about people, animals, and geographical themes. Full-page color photos and smaller photo overlays are outstanding. National, state and locator maps are a plus. VERDICT: These books won't replace traditional report material, but they introduce kids to the magic of travel and offer them a look at some of the United States's most interesting places."―School Library Journal, Series Made Simple (Journal) Read more About the Author Mary Meinking is a graphic designer by day and writes and illustrates books for children at night.

Extremely basic.
This is really short and very basic. I suggest you don't waist your time with this guide. It is useless.
