It’s the U.S. atlas every young explorer needs. And now, the Third Edition of the award-winning National Geographic United States Atlas for Young Explorers allows kids to explore both on its beautiful pages and interactively through our specially designed Web site. Readers can link directly to National Geographic's rich archive of multi-media resources—videos, photographs, maps, articles, sounds, games, and more-that will expand their knowledge and perspective about the country as well as its states and regions. All maps are custom-designed for intermediate-grade students by the Society’s world-famous cartographers. Locator maps and color-coding throughout make it easy for kids to keep track of where they are and to quickly navigate from region to region and from state to state.

The combination of large, detailed, yet easy-to-read maps, stunning, full-color photo essays, information-packed thematic spreads, and Web site links sets this atlas apart from every other U.S. atlas currently available for the 8–12 age group. The Third Edition of the National Geographic United States Atlas for Young Explorers is an invaluable resource and an essential reference for kids from coast to coast.

Great Resource

By C. George on January 12, 2012

Verified Purchase

We are a homeschooling family and have found this to be a good resource to accompany our U.S. History learning. It contains a lot of information and has great visuals and has kept my 9 year old son interested without getting bogged down.

Great for home teaching

By truss on April 6, 2011

Checked this book out of the library several times, and finally thought we should own a copy. We use it for our geography and mapping unit study. Have also gone on- line for the extras. It's a beautiful book.

A good atlas!

By Camille M. on July 22, 2011

Verified Purchase

A good reference for our homeschool! The maps, photos, and facts are very well laid out and interesting. Easy for even the youngest to get a gauge of where they are in the country, but also good as they grow up. Recommended highly.

Excellent engaging Atlas!

By Janice L Spalding on January 26, 2012

Verified Purchase

We gave this as a Christmas present to our precocious 7yo granddaughter. She promptly devoured this atlas, learning all the state capitols in the process (plus other state facts). What a surprise to the adults in her life! The book is well written and illustrated, and hard for anyone to put down once opened. A good choice for omnivorous early readers!

Birthday Gift

By Queen of Diamonds on September 26, 2012

Verified Purchase

I purchased this National Geographic Atlas as a birthday gift for my grandson who is 8 years old and in second grade. He is interested in where states are and information regarding these states. He loves the Atlas and has decided to do a school project using it. The maps are wonderful and it gives so much information regarding each state. Hopefully, he will be able to use this book for a long time. It is age appropriate for an 8-year-old and up.

This is just beautiful! I homeschool my great niece and nephew and needed a good atlas. This one is better than I ever expected!

The maps are great; the additional information makes it even more interesting. The kids like to just look and read through it.

I definitely recommend it to anyone that wants a good atlas on hand!

We bought this atlas to use with our RoadTrip USA curriculum. Easy to use, interesting state facts, large state maps, and internet-linked pages make this a great addition to our family library.
