Book Description

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

This is an attractive browsing atlas with hand-painted maps that give the feel of an aerial view of the land below. Unfortunately, it suffers from the same oversimplification as most browsing atlases and is not suitable for reference use. Other problems are that portions of the maps near page gutters are hard to read, and the legend lacks sufficient detail. Though it was published in 1994, the revised version is up to date as of December 1997.

4.0 out of 5 stars A hard working mother, September 5, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Around the World: An Atlas of Maps and Pictures (Hardcover)
This atlas has successfuly, not only filled, but created my limited quality time with my 5 years old son. We talk about issues animals and countries all the time even when it is not reading time. With him and all what he is learning it is like surfing the net if he remembers any thing of the atlas it leads to another, we can have minutes of endless chatting instead of screaming and shouting. It starts with maybe a name of country mentioned in the news and may end about our cousin's german shepard. IT IS OUR LITTLE's FAMILY FAVORATE BOOk.
