No organization to random places included
Published by MyKidsMommy8 , 9 months ago
First the positive: had beautiful photos and interesting facts that could inspire a person to travel. The negative is the places are all chosen at random and some states are included and listed same as other countries? No idea why since places were chosen and others not. Listed in no particular order. I wouldn't necessarily order this atlas again.
Great and colorful encyclopedia
Published by glyuk , 1 year ago
Great and colorful encyclopedia for kids, full of information about some really interesting places from all over the world. There are scary places, beautiful places, hidden places, perplexing places. It might not dwell in too deep into all of them, but it's a great start to get kids interested and curious about the world. Plus the quality of the book and the illustrations is great!
