"This was one of my favorite books back when I was eleven or twelve. I poured over its pages constantly, imagining myself in this country or that one. I was pleased to see that there's an updated edition now, a decade after the original book was published.
From what I can remember from the 1996 book, not a great deal has been changed. They've mainly just updated it for current events -- the brand-new country of East Timor, Hong Kong and Macao's being absorbed into China, etc.
I wish the book was more in-depth and I wish it was more egalitarian in terms of page space. The USA gets eight pages while many countries, Kyrgyzstan and Liberia to name two, get half a page or less. But the photographs are beautiful and this is an excellent book for providing basic geographical information and whetting a child's appetite for more. This would be great for classrooms in particular. HIGHLY recommended."
