What a Map Can Do by Gabrielle Balkan
A raccoon narrator embarks on a big adventure in this exciting exploration of maps for the youngest readers. Traditional maps of cities, roads, and parks are joined by some less conventional ones such as inside the body, each one methodically introduced with humour and clear explanation. A clever, colourful, and engaging first look at constructing and decoding maps.
