The Go Facts Environmental Issues strand looks at some of the most problematic issues facing the world today. The books have been carefully created to make information accessible to young readers. Large, exciting photographs draw readers into the text and get them thinking about the topic. The nonfiction text types - information report, explanation, recount, instructions, discussion and persuasion - are all represented. Other writing features such as compare and contrast, problem and solution, and cause and effect are included to show pupils how they can improve their non-fiction writing by incorporating these structures into their own work. Suitable for reading ages 9-11.
