From School Library Journal:

Gr 3–7—Journey the continents and countries with this vibrant reference that offers games and country data in addition to maps. Opening material includes a section on how to use the book and the maps featured. Most countries are covered on a whole spread (very small nations such as Malta and Vatican City have only one page), and the entries are arranged by continent and then region. An overview paragraph and map are included for each country, and entries for larger nations include a list of five things to do while there; three attractions; essential facts; and the national bird, flower, and mammal. "Digital traveler!" sections encourage research on National Geographic's site. When looking at this feature for Peru, for example, readers will find images of animals, such as guanacos, vicunas, alpacas, and llamas, and are then invited to reflect upon similarities and differences from animals in their own area. This atlas is bursting with colorful and catchy photographs, images, and fact boxes. It is ideal for students who want to learn more about the world for their own knowledge and is also a great supplement to geography projects or travel planning.—Beth McGuire, Hempfield Area School District
