Book review: Kung Fu

A volume in the Kids Guide to Martial Arts series from Rosens PowerKids line, this offers a simple introduction to the venerable Chinese martial art. pages are heavily illustrated with full-color photographs, principally of young people demonstrating various moves. That the book is targeted at both boy and girl readers is evidenced by the presence of girls in many of the pictures. Simple and straightforward, the accompanying text is a good complement to the information-filled pictures. A glossary, index, and brief bibliography are appended to this useful survey.
