Me on the Map Review
I homeschool and this is an excellent book for teaching elementary school kids their "place" on the map. It starts with a girl mapping her room and extends all the way to her place on the globe and back again. An excellent teaching tool for putting things in perspective! Not enough words to make this a bedtime book, but enough to cause interaction and learning.
Me on the Map Overview
Illustrated in full color. In this playful introduction to maps and
geography, step by simple step, a young girl shows readers herself on a map of
her room, her room on the map of her house, her house on the map of her
street--all the way to her country on a map of the world. Once the reader is
familiar with the maps, she demonstrates how readers can find their own
country, state, and town--all the way back to their room--on each colorful map.
Easy-to-read text, bright artwork, and charming details give children a lot to
search for and will have them eager to help navigate on the next family
vacation.

A good book to start teaching geography - Mom of three - Michigan
I homeschool and this is a good book for teaching K and 1st grade kids their "place" in the world. It starts with a girl mapping her room and extends all the way to her place on the globe. It is a really fun easy way to introduce geography/maps.
Fabulous book! - C. Gonzalez - Lamar, CO USA
What a great book. Great pictures. After reading it we sat down and made a map of my 4 year old's room. If only it explained the difference between living out in the country (like on a farm) and living in a different country (like China or Australia). But I can't complain. We love it!
