This is an excellent coloring book! It has a wealth of information about all of the countries of the world. Although this was written for a 5th or 6th grade level, this coloring book could be appropriate for children as young as 4 or 5 to begin to introduce them to world geography. There are supplemental maps in the back of the book which are designed to help identify major empires throughout the ages (e.g. Ottoman Empire) which can be very helpful for students of history in addition to students of geography. The section containing country flags was also a great resource.
Excellent for use in the classroom.

This is a great way to learn world geography. By coloring and reading about the country, state, river, mountain range, or territory, we learn in many ways at once. It stays with you. There's the visual, the kinetic, and auditory learning, if read outloud, like we do with my jr. high daughter. It's challenging for her, but she's getting it. As a homeschooling tool it can't be beat. It's great for adults, too!
