Our World: A Child's First Picture Atlas
National Geographic - ISBN: 0-7922-7576-4

 

Expand your child's horizons with this bright, bold view of the world.  Young explorers can travel to 7 continents without leaving home in this colorful picture atlas from National Geographic.  Oversized for eager young hands, it features:

Maps are designed with bold lines separating countries, states, and regions--like giant puzzles pieces fitted together. To help children understand types of terrain and bodies of water, each map has a key with pictorial references to desert, mountains, forest, grassland, and so on.  Learn about a country's people, popular places to visit there, wildlife and plants, and products grown and shipped around the world.  The section on South America, for example, contains extras such as information about gauchos (cowboys who herd cattle); a photo of a Brazilian boy who caught a big fish in the Amazon River; and an explanation of llamas and Ecuador's banana crop.

This amazing atlas has been created especially for younger children ages 3-6.  Billie W. Kapp, chief educational consultant for the project, was a teacher for 36 years, primarily for grades 4-6.  She conducts workshops at the local, state, national, and international levels.  She is co-coordinator of the Connecticut Geographic Alliance.
