This book was exactly as described - it contained 133 facts on WWII for kids. The layout was good and there were occassional photographs added too. I got the book for free through my Kindle Unlimited subscription.
This is another book in the numbered facts genre. Numbering the paragraphs is not really needed as the book reads decently without any numbers. Also, this book is very heavily centered on the European theater of war with only a couple chapters focusing entirely on the Pacific theater.
The book has illustrations and photos which helps.
It's a good summary of the European theater including events leading up to the war, attempts to stop a war from happening, the growth of the Nazi movement, the Nazi takeover of most of Europe, what happened in their attack on Russia and the results of the war.
I would have given it 4 stars if it were balanced between the two theaters but it's minus 1 star for majorly down-playing the Pacific theater.
