3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, August 18, 2006
By P. Gaul (Reisterstown, Maryland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this expecting simple maps that my daughter could use to track the routes we were driving. Well, it's simplistic all right. It doesn't mark many of the cities we drive through. It is more of a car activity book. It's got puzzles and games to keep children busy, but its maps are more like general overviews of the states. For children younger than seven, this is probably good. Older children would most likely prefer a real road atlas with all the roads and cities marked.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it!, July 27, 2005
By Ellen Krumm (Redmond, WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We bought a book for each of our two children. Our eight-year-old stayed busy with the puzzles, and had lots of questions about things on the maps which made for good car conversation (and good geography lessons for all of us). The best part was marking off our route with a highlighter pen at every rest stop; she could track our progress along the way and see exactly what town we were stopping in next. It made the "how much longer?" questions easier to answer ("Look on your map!"). Our six-year-old was slightly too young for some of the puzzles, but liked highlighting the route as well as marking off the license plate state chart (hint: Mt. Rushmore is a treasure trove of license plates!). We will use these atlases on every car trip. Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars Would be a better book if, November 5, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This would be a better book if it also included an overall map of the country showing all the states, and an index listing each state alphabetically and by region and page number.
