Wow! September 2, 2007
Paul Susca (New Hampshire)
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Every month FACES covers the world. Up-to-date info on countries, places and international themes. This is a multi-cultural resource that beats out books because nothing's more timely than a monthly. Photos fantastic! Stories fun! Games, actitivites, folktales, illustrations by reknowned artists. Great for homeschoolers or in the classroom or just for fun. Especially good for reluctant readers because every page is filled with great photos and illustrations.

FACES is a great magazine that lets children explore many cultures from around the world. Through folk tales, photos, and maps FACES takes its readers on an adventure that teaches them about the lives, traditions, and pastimes of many cultures. FACES' target audience is between the ages of 9 and 14, but its interesting articles and entertaining themes are suitable for any reader looking for knowledge. You will learn about many places in the pages of FACES.
Global Coverage for a Preteen Audience August 21, 2008
Elsa Stubbins
Faces is packed with all kinds of information on a range of topics that spans the world. Issues cover individual countries and cultures or things that affect the whole world, like human rights. Its light but educational articles are accompanied by tons of photos, contests, plays or stories and topic related activities. Targeted at 9 to 14 year olds, it's fun and interesting for adults as well.
