A couple of times I have bought the first book in a series the kids have loved it, they have been hooked and want to read more. Encourages children to see 'geography' all around them, and to be inspired by some truly remarkable people. A review in the journal Nature praised the series (along with Horrible Science) for its "sense of fun" alongside the educational content, but noted that the facts provided are occasionally misleading.
