This book opens to a 18 x 12 outline map of the United States. The outlines are in different colors for various states. The stickers inside the book are solid colors that match the outlines. They contain the name of the state and its capital. Even preschoolers can use this system of identifying and locating the states, but it is also an excellent learning tool for elementary children.
