What kid doesn amp rsquo t love drawing a treasure map like a pirate? Without even knowing it, kids will realize that they already know how to read and draw maps. amp rdquo -Unconventional Librarianamp ldquo The playful cartoon artwork is simple enough to allow young readers to absorb the mindfulness and geographic reasoning lessons that are demonstrated on each page amp hellip . An excellent addition to geography collections. amp rdquo -School Library Journalamp quot It amp rsquo s a great invitation to start mapping out our world-something that may be seen by some as a dying art in this age of GPS, but is a critically important skill to have. amp quot -Mom Read Itamp ldquo This book makes these things so much easier to learn by bringing these ideas to a level that kids can understand-their own lives amp hellip .

Mapping My Day by Julie Dillemuth and illustrated by Laura Wood introduces a little girl who describes different aspects of her daily routine through the use of maps and explains the related symbols, terms, and ideas as she goes along. amp quot -Five Minutes for Momamp quot This book is so informative and really helps young ones get more comfortable with maps from reading to drawing and more. I love it!! amp quot -Crafty Moms Shareamp quot We often underestimate the ability of young children to learn how to read and understand maps. That's why a resource like the new nonfiction picture book Mapping My Day by Julie Dillemuth and illustrated by Laura Wood is such an asset for educators. amp quot -Growing with Scienceamp quot I anticipate young readers will make lots of of connections to Flora in this story just as I did. But if not, I'm guessing they'll be captivated by her world and will get a little more curious about their own. amp quot -Teach Mentor Texts
