Mapping Penny's World

32 pp. | Holt | September, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-8050-6178-9 $$17.00
(3) K-3 After learning about maps in school, Lisa draws a few of her own, including her bedroom, her dog Penny's favorite spots to hide bones and toys, and some of their other hangouts. Leedy's text and illustrations, a combination of digital painting and photo-collage, point out important details, such as a map's scale and symbols. Lisa's enthusiasm is catching: young readers will be eager to grab pencil and paper and try out mapmaking, too.
