 The Scrambled States of America
by Laurie Keller. Filled with humor and silly illustrations, The Scrambled
States of America is a fun way to learn about the 50 states and their
locations. Each state is a character, with its own color, shape, and
personality. One morning, Kansas wakes up bored and unhappy (what a state to be
in!) He and his best friend, Nebraska, decide to organize a party with the other
states so they can meet each and have a good time. At the end of the party,
Idaho and Virginia suggest that everyone switch places. All the states excitedly
agree and soon the map of the U.S. is completely different. After a few days
enjoying themselves, each state finds that they miss their old home. Soon,
everyone is home and sharing their adventures with their old friends.
The book has lots of introductory facts and silly antics that will make learning
geography fun. Each state is listed in the back of the book in alphabetical
order along with the name of the capital, square miles, population number, and
state slogan. A picture book designed for young children (ages 4-8), its zany
humor, funny asides, and wacky illustrations will delight any reader.
Paper, 40 pages.
