Cute, Colorful Atlas
Review byLexie
Each state has two pages of colorful information. Fun pictures of interesting locations in the state as well as flag explanations are shown in a simple format that is perfect for the young learner. Even though it is for younger children, there were several details that I personally learned in reading through this book.

Beautiful, informative, and succinct!
Review byCandice
This book, while similar to the atlas, has more simple information and some fun tidbits! Both would be used together quite nicely! Masterbooks really goes to great lengths to make beautiful, engaging materials and this one is no exception!

A Fantastic Adventure Through All Fifty States!
Review byKelly Ann
This is has been such a great resource to use for our United States studies! We are also pairing it with the Master Books Children's Atlas of the U.S.A, which is another nice addition. The beginning of this book offers a little history of the United States, followed by pages upon pages of fun facts about each state in alphabetical order. The full-color illustrations and photography make flipping through each page a fantastic adventure through all fifty states. My son was able to learn about major landmarks, famous foods, state birds and flowers, what each flag looks like, and more! Some other fun additions include photographs of each state's license plate and even their quarter design. There is also an illustrated notation that shows children where the state is geographically located.

Passport to America
Review byLove2BeMom
Passport to America is part of the Elementary U.S. Geography & Social Studies Curriculum Pack for grades 4 to 6, but can be used as a stand alone book as well.
Children will take a book journey through the United States, exploring His creation and discovering God’s natural wonders. They will glorify God as they learn about cultures, state flags, geographic locations, and interesting facts about each state and more. The book is full of beautiful, colourful photographs with just enough information on each state to not feel overwhelmed.
