The Young Children's Encyclopedia 16 Book Complete Set Hardcover – January 1, 1988

All 16 arrived and I haven't found any markings or damage on any of them yet. They were packaged well and arrived in a timely manner.I will say that there is some non-politically correct language throughout, like assuming all the people working in a factory are men, or saying all the children in the class painted "his" own picture etc. It's just a product of the time it was written in, but if that type of thing offends you then this would not be a good set of books for you/your kids.

If book #12 is missing then it really isn't a "complete" set is it?

Retro, but a good collection to have when your kids war wanting to look at pictures in books. Helps get the imagination going. my kids really enjoy these.
