road maps, quad maps, relief maps, charts for pilots and seamen, maps for
buried mineral treasure, even the rrewest.maps of the moon.

excites the curiosity. . . Susan Marsh is a gifted and understanding
writer. The book is absorbing and an important contribution to the
literature available today for grade school readers."

is presented with clarity and taste in a manner that is rare in the
production of material for elementary children."
-- Grade Teacher
"I am delighted with Susan Marsh's ALL ABOUT MAPS AND MAPMAKING. Written
for the curious and adventurous of any age, but primarily for boys and
girls of intermediate grades and junior high, it is informal in style
and accurate in contents." -- Dr. Prudence Bostwick, Past President,

ABOUT
Susan MarshMAPS
GRADE BY GRADE
Maps can do for social studies what paperback books have
done for literature. In addition to the indispensable, made-
for-schools maps, teachers need to introduce more gather-
around-the-table and hand-held maps. Alert teachers are
turning to the use of such maps as source material, and
these books will be an invaluable guide to an inexperienced
teacher, a valuable reference for the experienced.
? You can teach directly from these books. Chapter by
chapter, book by book, you can develop map reading
skills for grades 1 through 6.
? Large, detailed black and white photographs of all kinds
of maps-shaded relief, topographic, nautical, aeronau-
tical-can be projected with an opaque projector.
? Tells you where and how to get maps, with prices. Some
are free, almost all are inexpensive, and many are already
part of the school's map and globe library.
? Each book has a comprehensive index to all books, so
you can find the chapter and map you need for special
interests. Over 1,000 entries in the index.
? Includes dozens of original outdoor and indoor activities
as ways of enlivening map studies.
