Mapping Our World
Where are you right now? Not just at school or at home, but in what city, what state, what country? Where you are can be found on a map or globe, which you usually have in a classroom.
These things can have important jobs, too, like showing you weather forecasts or where different populations live. When you read Mapping Our World, you're going to become a map expert, including what maps used to look like hundreds of years ago and how we use technology to make new maps today.
