Bought for my 7 and 4 year old in hopes of teaching them about places we will be traveling. It is okay for my 7 year old but even with that might be slightly too complex. The pages are very busy. It is a good book with lots of details but the pages have more information than I anticipated so that it will be hard to have her focus on the simple details. Still a good educational book.
Great guide for 'new' American residents

Love this book. Great book for adults and children alike. This one is my second copy to give to my father who lives in Germany. He wanted it as an encyclopedia of the US.
Great Resource

We bought this for our son, who is in 1st grade, when he had to report on a state for school. He loves the book and is enjoying reading all the facts about each state. The pictures keep him interested and the facts are both standard and eclectic so everyone in our family learned something new from this book. It is also simple enough for him to read on his own. I would highly recommend this book for any elementary school student wishing to learn more about the states.
Excellent resource for learning about the states of the U. S.

This is an excellent book for young children to learn about the states. A topographical map of each state is given along with diagrams and text explaining various facts about the state. Items like the state bird, state flower, state insect, state tree, endangered species in the state, primary crops, unusual natural features, famous people and other points of historical significance. I strongly recommend it for social studies classes or just for quizzes among family members.
Fun to look at and read

Seven states have the cardinal as the state bird. Lots of states have butterflys as their state insects. We liked the state nicknames. We read a few states each night. Sometimes we can't remember all the facts about each state.
