*I’m not certain this is the correct publication entry — but, what I read was full of interesting teasers of information that felt too much like a dry school textbook.
Bits and pieces of info about various aspects of the Philippines were mentioned, but quickly stolen away: photos were minimal and lackluster; the cover slightly misleading as I was intrigued (mostly) by a culturally-costumed native, but never referred to on the inside of the book.
Perhaps logging onto the AV2 companion ebook web portal would enhance this particular binding, but I didn’t feel the desire to want more from this edition.
Although the images (that are there) are colorful, I found this publication too short and just above basic for an adolescent to write a proper report.
