Scholastic Atlas of the World Summary

Scholastic Atlas of the World by Kelly Miles

With more than eighty maps, hundreds of color photographs, and thousands of statistics, the Scholastic Atlas of the World will enrich and expand a child's view of each and every country around the globe. Each topographical map clearly locates important cities, mountains, deserts, and bodies of water, indicating border countries and national capitals. Essays about the culture and geography of each country are included, accompanied by photographs that take readers on a visual journey. Discover More features further extend learning.A significant aspect of this book is that every country is given some context as it relates to North America. Time zones, distances, life expectancies, and other important touchstones are seen in comparison with those of the United States. This will be a huge help to American kids, furthering their understanding of other countries by relating it to their own experiences.Another innovative feature is the indexing. Every spread has its own index, called Search and Find, so that kids don't have to go to the extensive index at the back of the book to find a particular city or town within a country. The Search and Find is right there to guide them.The detailed introduction shows young people how maps evolved and how different maps are used. Readers also learn how Earth was formed, and about the forces that create the mountains, rivers, lakes, oceans, and other physical features that maps depict.All in all, the Scholastic Atlas of the World is a unique and timeless resource that should find a place in every child's library.
