Why did you choose this?
Subject matter and price.
Our daughter liked the 4th grade book she used this year so I wanted to get the next level for the fall.
It looks like it covers a lot of geographical terminology that my daughter has not learned yet.
My daughter is really starting to get into geography at school and loves it. So I thought I would buy it for her for over the Summer. It looks like it would be fun.
