Philip's Children's Atlas (11 Rev ed)

This highly acclaimed illustrated world atlas for 7-12 year olds, now in its 11th edition, has been fully revised and updated for 2005.

Spread by spread, the atlas contents are structured to follow the classic arrangement adopted by most cartographers since the 16th century: first Europe, then its land neighbour Asia, then Africa, Australia and Oceania, North America and South America.

Clear, accurate cartography and fascinating facts about the countries of the world combine to provide essential geographical information for young readers.

In addition, guidance is given at the beginning of the atlas on how to use the maps, encouraging the early development of map skills.

Illustrated with interesting full-colour photographs and packed with fact boxes, curiosities, flags, stamps and quiz questions, Philip's Children's Atlas is both fun to use and easy to understand.
