Book Description
This unique educational tool introduces learners to the countries of the world and the states of the United States. Through active participation, coloring the maps, users gain a broad understanding of the material—and retain that understanding. Each section begins with a plate containing a political map, a physical map, and regional maps. World Thematic Maps consist of eleven global maps covering climate, rainfall, temperatures, prevailing winds, ocean currents, vegetation, land use, population, racial distribution, languages, and religions—presenting a «global» view of human activity. Flags and Review of Nations groups flags of the world according to continents, with the illustration of the flag placed close to the country of origin. For children of all ages—and their parents—who could benefit from a colorful “crash course”—or “refresher”—in geography, and an enjoyable and informative guide to a greater understanding of the world around them.

• Maps: Conceptual And Current 09 May, 2008
You often want a current map that you can easily reproduce, draw upon, color, scan or modify. The news talks about unfamiliar countries every day and you vaguely recall where this or that is. This Atlas is similar to the biology coloring books and is extremely handy for use in the office, schools or refrigerator. Geographers like maps. Where people may communicate verbally or in text, geographers often feel more comfortable once an area has been identified graphically. From a printed map we can internalize the information and carry a mental map with us, and always be able to come back to the printed map. "Just show me the map and I will know what you are talking about" is a common phrase and is exactly why television news media make use of GoogleEarth photomaps every day. We are visually creatures who just want a simple representation of what we are referring to. This is a valuable resource for K-18 schools, business, churches and reference. I use mine almost every week.

• Another Great Resource. 24 September, 2007
I've been a seventh grade teacher for 10 years and I still enjoy using these books as a resource in my classroom. Students learn the information through attention to detail and find uses for their completed materials in projects throughout the year.

• Wrong Information In This Book 16 November, 2007
I am about to contact this company about this book.
What is the point of having an Atlas with incorrect information in it.
They have Cyprus as being in Asia....Did someone move it without telling us?
I have been to Cyprus 3 times and I can assure you that it is in Europe.
It makes me wonder how many other mistakes are in this book.
