National Geographic Kids is great for both fact and fiction books! We received two amazing books from their collection including the fact-filled National Geographic Kids Almanac 2019 and The Nebula Secret (fiction) which is the first book in their new Explorer Academy series. Both books are perfect for middle graders (age 8-12).
My daughter loves to read and we received both books right before going on a trip, so we took the books along to read on the plane. She devoured both books. She was so excited to learn about some of the Cool Things for 2019 (the theme throughout the National Geographic Kids Almanac 2019) and kept asking me did you know?
The new series, Explorer Academy, encourages kids to explore their world through fiction and includes subjects ranging from geography to STEM to exploration to world cultures. The series is inspired by the real-life adventures of real National Geographic explorers.
Explorer Academy: The Nebula Secret is more than just a thriller, it’s packed with code-breaking activities and puzzles that are intertwined with the story. My daughter really loves mysteries so this book’s problem-solving plot kept her interested.
