My Review:
National Geographic books are always beautiful and informative and this one is no exception. I have always enjoyed looking at maps and information about places. There is so much information in this book! Here are some examples:
A map of technology throughout the world including Internet Bandwith, Internet Access, Mobile-Cellular Subscriptions, etc.
A map of the US National Parks
A Time Zone Map
The United States Northern Plains
A Map of the Moon!
A map of the World’s Religions
As you can see, this book is full of information! It would make a great gift for anyone interested in the world we live in.
