    A perfect first introduction to maps and map skills for young readers!

    There are families living in countries across the Americas and all around the world. From Canada, the United States, and Mexico to Central America, countries can look very different but still have a lot in common. Learn how to use map features like a key, compass rose, and a scale to answer questions about direction, measurement, and symbols. Look at photos of different countries, and use the maps inside the book to navigate and compare what is the same and what is different between them. At the end, you will be ready to draw a map of your own country. All this and more in Mapping My Country!
