| Description: |
Here's a happy hodgepodge that will introduce primary-grade kids to the 50 states, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. territories. Each page contains simple pictures of two states, with bits of state lore and information scattered about. The state capital, a place or event, the year the state entered the Union, and the state bird, flower, river, or lake are among the facts on the map. These facts are noted in various typefaces, but the key to the typefaces is on the title page, making it hard to find; happily, however, the key is not really necessary. Kids will delight in taking a look at the diminutive images that cover the state, and a second look at things they might have missed the first time around, e.g., the letters of California formed by fruits and veggies, or the ballooned questions, such as "What is a Hoosier?" --which are answered on the last page. Brightly colored and amusingly designed, this is a simple yet winning introduction to the U.S. --Ilene Cooper
