Publisher's Synopsis
Maps commonly show where rivers and coasts are located, but they can also provide information beyond just geography too. Readers get a closer look at the many things maps can teach us about waterways and coastal areas in this vibrant guide to geography, ecosystems, and other essential earth science concepts. Each map features helpful keys and labels, along with main text that supplements the information presented visually. Sidebars and fact boxes highlight key pieces of information, and graphic organizers provide an additional avenue for learning.
