Description: Read all about the world's continents, from North and South America to Europe, Asia, Africa, Antarctica and Oceania. Fact Cat Geography: Continents answers questions such as what are the continents? How many continents are there? And what is the largest continent in the world? Along with many more. A world map allows children to name and locate the world's seven continents and five oceans. Each spread focusses on a different continent, looking at how many countries are in it, and some key facts about that continent, such as famous geographical features, for example the Iguazu Falls in South America, the climate, and the food. At the back of each book is a quiz which requires children to go back through the text and find the answers - encouraging them to think about, and engage with, what they have read. The information is presented in manageable chunks, making the book both highly accessible and ideal for project work.
Notes: Includes index.
