5.0 out of 5 stars A Fabulous book to discover Oregon - great for kids & adults, Nov 17 2003
By A Customer
I just LOVE this book! It's such a nice way to let children learn a bit about Oregon. My son is 4 and loves the book - the main alphabet portion if at just his pace. However, on each page, there is additional detail in the side margin that I enjoyed - and my son will when his a bit older. The side margin parts helped me learn more about Oregon and I've added some new destinations to my 'must see in Oregon' list.

This book is one in a series -- there are alphabet books like it for most of the other states around the country. My husband and I both travel for work and are going to start purchasing a book for each state we travel to bring home for the kids. Within a few years, they should collect most of the country and learn a lot about the country as well.

One thing I really like is that the publisher had a local Oregon writer and artist do the book. I'm assuming they found locals across the country for the other books too. You can tell by the detail and enthusiasm in the book that locals played a key part.

A great book to start of collection of all the states. And Amazon's prices are the best I've seen (plus we'll be able to order ahead for future books -- my local book store only carries the Oregon book).
