From School Library Journal
Grade 1-3–Wandering mutt Charlie travels west through the United States, tying together a visual search-and-find for geographical icons and historical trivia. Colorful cartoon images dot a loosely drawn state map for each stop, and readers are encouraged to find the locations and the elusive pup in each one. An introduction to state geography for younger children and a simplification of information for older students, the format nevertheless entertains with maps of 12 states and some unusual highlights. Looking for space aliens in Roswell, NM? Charlie finds them, in addition to the Ichthyosaur Paleontologic Monument in Nevada and the London Bridge in Arizona. While it is difficult to pinpoint exact locations, a fact box fills in questions about some sites. State flags and a state locator on a U.S. map accompany each spread, and questions appear in a large font surrounded by plenty of white space. A nice addition for general-interest reading.–Mary Elam, Forman Elementary School, Plano, TX
