Customer Reviews

Excellent resource for children and teachers.

I am a third grade teacher in an urban community. While studying rainforests with my third grade class, I introduced a geography activity. The children learn where some particular animals are from,locate them on the map, and color the region in on b & w map. I have done this activity for years, but never with so much excitement and success. The FOF Children's Atlas brought the activity to life. It has an easy to use index with map coordinate references. The beautiful color pictures and maps make it interesting and inviting. The detailed maps with overview map inserts for each region make it easy to find on a world map. My third graders love it; my collegues love it. I just ordered 5 more for my classroom!
