DISCOVER the facts and DO the activities in this fun geography book all about marvellous maps!
Discover and Do! Geography is the perfect introduction to geography for readers aged 7 and up who enjoy getting creative. Each book looks at core geography topics and brings them to life through a lively combination of experiments, craft activities and quizzes.

Discover & Do! Maps takes an up-close look at different uses for maps and plans, exploring essential geography topics such as compass points, scale and landscapes. Readers will find information about navigation and map-making skills, and how they can use clues in nature to find their way even without technology. Alongside the facts, readers discover how to design a map of their local area from first-person observation, how to shrink and grow a map, and will even try their hand at making building plans - as an architect does - and much more!
