I used this book in my first and second grade classrooms. We would sit in front of a large wall map and then read a page at a time. Next we would find the city or country on the map. Some clues were occasionally needed but most of the time some students would know that London is in England, or Paris is in France. Yes, Uxmal and Xian were a little difficult but since I had been to both of these places plus 13 other places included in this book I could add some interesting details. We didn't try to do the whole book in one sitting. Our class also had e-mail contacts with schools in Wales, Canada, Australia, Africa, Mexico plus several across the U.S. so we may have had an additional interest in the world around us.
