"Learning how to read all different kinds of maps is a valuable skill. There are maps that depict different natural landforms, groups of people, weather patterns, and towns and cities. Money and trade can also be shown on maps. Readers gain knowledge about economics through this creative look at maps that deal with these concepts. Concise text makes this subject easy to understand. The detailed glossary, helpful fact boxes, useful diagrams and graphic organizers, and bright, full-color examples of maps enhance this reading experience."--Publisher's description.
