A
Child's Geography
"A Child's
Geography: Explore His Earth" is, in some
ways, really like exploring and scouting out various
routes before a grand trip! While scouting and
surveying the grand scheme of things, the sciences of
His Earth, our appetite is whetted for the real march
out into the countries of this Earth. The anticipation
builds as we learn about the workings and the ways of
His Earth. Then, having gained our bearings in
"Explore His Earth," future volumes of "A
Child's Geography" will follow the same traditional path of our chronological study of
history, trekking through the countries of our world
as they exist
today.
