Review

"A vast array of information presented in a thorough yet interesting way. I can't think of a better resource to aid those connected with the Bee."
?Joseph J. Kerski, Ph.D., educator and geographer, U.S. Geological Survey

"Indispensable! If you could use just one source to study for the National Geographic Bee?this is it. Fantastic!"
?Edward Grode, principal of Perry School, America's first "geography theme-based" elementary school and moderator for the Pennsylvania Geography Bee

"A gold mine of useful information for anyone preparing for the National Geographic Bee. The study guide alone makes this a must-have resource for any geography teacher."
?Brad Bowerman, geography teacher and operator of "Geography World" online -- Review

5.0 out of 5 stars The Geography Book We've Been Waiting For!, February 26, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Geography Bee Complete Preparation Handbook: 1,001 Questions & Answers to Help You Win Again and Again! (Paperback)
This book is exactly what I needed several years ago, when my son was studying for the State Geography Bee. It is so helpful to have so many questions (with answers!), in such a user-friendly format. The study tips are useful,too. Having compared this book to the one published by the National Geographic Society, this one has a lot more study questions and preparation tips. This is the book I'm now recommending to anyone interested in the Geography Bee. I'll be using it with my daughter!

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Helper, April 14, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Geography Bee Complete Preparation Handbook: 1,001 Questions & Answers to Help You Win Again and Again! (Paperback)
This book is really great compared to the National Geographic version. My child was in the state level geography bee. This really helped him. It includes terms, tons of questions, and facts about what seems like everywhere in the world. If your deciding between this and the National geographic version buy this one. It has lots more information and questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great help for Geographic Bee, December 17, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Geography Bee Complete Preparation Handbook: 1,001 Questions & Answers to Help You Win Again and Again! (Paperback)
We found this book a great help in our son's preparation for the National Geographic Bee. This book gives a great start to understanding the basics of geography. We only got through part of the book before the school's bee. Next year my son will have completed the book, and the other book of Matt's, "The Handy Geography Answer Book". The combination of these two books will definately increase your childs knowledge of the world. Matt gives some tips on how to do well in the bee, but most of the empahsis is on learing the material. There is no simple way to study for the bee. His advice on narrowing the answers was very helpful. We spent some time on learing the "superlatives". My son did not get any of those questions during the bee, but the knowledge of knowing the tallest, longest, biggest etc... is invaluable.
