I am so excited to be a part of the Moms of Master Books review team. On this team, I get the opportunity to review books from an amazing Christian publishing group, New Leaf Publishing Group. The book for the month of July is Children’s Atlas of God’s World by Craig Froman. I was so excited after seeing this book on our list to review!
Children’s Atlas of God’s World.
On the back of the book, it has “One-Of-A-Kind children’s atlas to explore God’s World” and this book really is one of a kind. The Children’s Atlas of God’s World is a very colorful and vibrant hard-back book, that is HUGE. It measures approximately 10″x14″! I told you it was a BIG book! The pages are heavy paper with a beautiful glossy look to them. They are very easy to turn and even wipe off, if any messy hands were to flip through the pages.
In this one-of-a-kind book, you will travel through all seven continents. As you travel through the continents in the book, the author also will talk about many different countries. Mr. Froman has given you a key in the Table of Contents of things to look for and read through as you read through each section.
- Christian History and Tradition is marked with a flag with the Cross on it. This talks about Christian history, people of faith and Christian traditions around the world.
- Red Pins – when you see a red pin in the book, you will find the number pin on the map marking a landmark, river, or other locations.
- Green Highlights are words that are just that, highlighted in green. This is letting you know that it is a city or other sites on the map.
- UNESCO World Heritage Sites are marked by green flags. This is sites recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
- Biomes is the last key to look for. The Biomes symbol will share about the habitats around the world, including forests, deserts, grasslands, tundra and many more.

The book tells of the diversity of God’s creatures, natural habitats and the animals and plants that live in them.

Our family has really enjoyed this book since we received it. I love seeing the kids reading the book, wanting to learn more about the world we live in. I think it is a great addition to our growing library. This book will also come in handy when we begin our geography lessons for the upcoming school year. This book has definitely quickly become a favorite in our home.
