The Southwest

By Niccole Bartley

The Southwest boasts some of the most beautiful landscapes in the United States. It is a fast-growing region with a growing economy, and yet it still holds onto its Native American, Hispanic, and Wild West roots. Native American traditions of pottery-making, weaving, and architecture still color the region's culture. People come from all over to enjoy its arts, food, and amazing canyons, deserts, and mountains. Readers will explore the region through in-depth text, a full-spread map that highlights the region's major cities and landmarks, and writing prompts and sidebars that connect the text to the Common Core.
