Thanks everyone for the great feedback. Carrie got back to me tonight and confirmed we can combine in a case like this to improve the readability. And really, in this book, the author used two pages as one with blurbs anywhere around pictures and across pages. I am sure preteens will find it a great way to learn about an ancient civilization. Have a great weekend!
