School Library Journal
This is a brief, simple atlas, with no index. It has a partial key to map symbols, and the introduction provides limited information about maps. First Atlas offers more information than similar titles in one area: its U.S. map names all states and their capitals. On the other hand, it leaves out many small countries. The atlas also contains at least one major error, calling the U.S. Capitol building the "Capital." This title is not appropriate for reference use but is acceptable for browsing with young children.Book Details
