    This was a new series for our oldest daughter, grade 4. She enjoyed the curriculum and workbook. Would Recommend.
    Great Science/History of the Earth book
    Review by Elyse
    This is a great book and I love the way it's written, however it does seem to be more of a science book than geography (though geography is interwoven, it just seems to be more science-based.) If I were to do it again, I'd wait til upper elementary/middle school to work through this. But overall, I love the Biblical viewpoint and it's full of good information!
    LOVE!
    Review by Echo
    My kids loved this book and I enjoyed reading it as well.
    Geography
    Review by Nichole
    We’ve enjoyed this geography course and are really excited to start level 2 next year. We do this course family style and enjoy learning about geography this way.
    Science, not History
    Review by Lori
    Love this book but it's definitely more of a science text rather than history. Or you could say it's the "history" of how God physically constructed the Earth. Great geology text but not geography or history. Wonderful activities, reviews, and knowledge checks.
    A unique approach!
    Review by Elizabeth
    My son has been really enjoying this book! The chapters are written in an imaginative way that helps him understand the concepts being taught!
    I wasn't expecting geography to go through the subjects we have gone through so far, but it's been great! My son has enjoyed all the little lab like activities and geography is so much fun!
    Lots of good information
    Review by Vanessa
    We enjoyed this book. It contains a lot of information. Would be best for older elementary students as my younger elementary kids had a harder time following and understanding.
    Great geography course
    Review by mons
    We have loved this course. We add it to our morning basket once a week and its been great. I love the Godly focus and the writing is very discussion based which we all love. We are currently doing this with an 8 and 10 yr old. I plan on continuing with the other geography books as we study different periods of history. well done!
    Makes Geography Interesting
    Review by Emily
    I've always thought pf geography as one of the more "boring" subjects, so I was drawn to this book because it makes geography come alive. I really like the angle it uses- the first section of the book is almost more of a science study, giving a solid foundation of where our earth fits into the universe and God's plan, why geography us important, how our world and atmosphere work. The schedule is also really manageable- only 3 days a week, and not too much each day- so it would be easy to combine with a history course.
    disappointed
    Review by Jordan
    VERY disappointed in this book, it is written in a very different way. We only did it for a few weeks because my whole family hated it! Come to find out a few months after quitting this book that the author has some different beliefs, I haven't looked too far into this because we don't like the book what so ever but if you are considering this book please do your research first. Unfortunately I would NOT recommend this book.
