States and Capitals: United We Stand! [With Poster]

Meer over het boek

Basher History: US States follows on from the bestselling Presidents with another all-American theme. Who better than Basher to give each state a face, voice, and personality and to give kids a fun, unusual but really information-packed gazetteer of their country. From Alabama to Wyoming, and including the District of Columbia and six US territories, each place gets the Basher treatment and gets to boast about why it is special. The important details about capitals, flags, state birds, state flowers, are all there, and this book adds interesting  and memorable facts not found elsewhere. Find out how Connecticut got to be called  the Nutmeg State, why Louisiana, has a very different legal system, and what made landlocked Utah choose the seagull as its state bird.
