From the rocky pillars and arches on the Colorado Plateau to the busy streets of downtown Salt Lake City, Utah is an amazing place to be. A True My United States series allows readers to experience what makes each of the fifty state distinctive and exceptional. Readers will get to know each states' history, geography, wildlife and future outlook. This series includes an age appropriate (grades 3-5) introduction to curriculum-relevant subjects and a robust resource section that encourages independent study. Readers will set out on a journey through the Beehive State, learning about its history, culture, wildlife, and government along the way.
Such beautiful rock formations - would love to visit Utah some day. Some of the pictures I have seen of Utah almost seem otherworldly; it has a very unique landscape that I think hikers would really enjoy. I have met people who grew up in Utah, they seem very 'grounded' in family and community. Hope to get there one summer!
This book is full of facts as well. It has amazing photographers of different areas of Utah. But it also has sections where it has facts in all over. It shows really neat graphics where it funs to show and explain to my kids. Such as how many Mormons live in Utah. My kids really enjoyed listening to me read this book and able to teach them about Utah.
