State Shapes: Washington

State Shapes

by Erin McHugh, Alfred Schrier (Illustrator)

Learn about the history, scenery, and people of Washington in this charmingly illustrated exploration of the only U.S. state to be named after a president. Die-cut in the shape of the Evergreen State, it carries kids and adults alike on a journey through the Cascade Range mountains (including a stop at the volcano Mount St. Helens) and into the Hoh Rain Forest -- one of the only temperate rainforests in the continental United States. Full of fun facts on Seattle, Spokane, the Lewis-and-Clark trail and more, State Shapes Washington is an exciting addition to the State Shapes series.

i really liked the AZ version that I had read. Maybe after reading a second "state shape" book I was tired of the format already. Some good information within, but I liked the other one more. I think kids would enjoy it and it would be helpful for a 5th grade state report.

Love this book for what it teaches my kids about their state. I'd like to get the others. I found it at Costco.
