Educational tool

A handy little pocket book you can tote around and browse most anytime, this book is very helpful to refresh the memory or to learn your facts. The book is broken down into subject matter chapters beginning with English,Mathematics,Science, History, Geography, The Classics and concludes with Music. Each chapter covers the subject very succinctly and suprisingly in some detail. The subjective choice of factoids goes from interesting to mundane. Lists abound like 100 Must Read Novels, Presidents of the U.S., World Capitals , Capital Cities,Thirty Classical Composers and their Greatest Works, Unites States Presidents and Sixty Inventions and Discoveries to name just some of the lists. The book is highly browsable or skimmable. This is a good book for inquisitive young readers(elementary school) or older students who want a refresher course on basic curiculum points.
