Description
"All Across Europe" helps children learn about the countries, people, animals, and landscapes of modern Europe. As with the other books in the series, this book uses artwork and poems to make geography fun, with cartoon characters named after the capital of each country as a learning device. It also helps to explain and simplify a continent with many new countries, often confusing borders, and a rich, varied culture.
