It's fine and all, but ... November 25, 2008
I purchased this atlas as a birthday gift for my three year-old daughter, as she's recently taken an interest in maps. The graphics are great, and the information appears to all be correct. But it's a bit skimpy, and it doesn't include many pictures of exotic fruits and animals. My daughter's shown little interest in it, preferring instead an atlas I received as a kid back in the early 1980s.

Great preschool atlas February 9, 2008

This atlas is perfect for my 3-year-old son. We pull it out regularly to show where something/someone is. It has simple, uncluttered maps with a few details that we can choose to read or not.

Great Young Child's Atlas December 18, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I purchased this atlas for my precocious four-year-old granddaughter who is very curious about the world and asking "where is that?" questions. It is simple enough for a young beginner, yet contains enough interesting material to give her food for thought for some time. A real winner!

Underwhelming - Overpriced December 17, 2007
4 out of 5 found this review helpful

Make sure you note this book is only 32 pages. Yes, for $17.95 you get an "atlas" that's 32 pages long. There's only 2 pages on the United States. You get very little for the money here.

This atlas is an outstanding means for introducing young children to one of the many important tools necessary for mastering geography. The continents are clearly and boldly shown. Information is precise and appropriate.
