This lively and visually appealing book acts as an introduction to maps and map-making. It also explores the theme of the environment. Starting with a simple map of a classroom, the book takes the reader on a journey outward, illustrating a town, a country, then the whole world. It shows how environmental damage affects people, by mapping a rainforest village. Readers are also invited to create maps of their own, supported by easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions.
