This quality designed book is filled with information on each state and is a fascinating, fun read.... the license plates are so much fun to view and the size of the book makes it very convenient to hold and read.

Review: This is a fantastic book! Last year we went on a vacation with 11 hours of driving. We saw plates from around 30 states. However, we did not have this informative guide like we did this year.

The paper stock is heavy and coated, making it resistant to any "accidents" that may happen in the car. The pages are oriented horizontally and have a tie so that they are easy to flip. Each page has the plate on one side and a ton of information on the other side (great for keeping inquisitive kids busy). At the back is a good map of the states (a two-page foldout) which can be scanned and printed so that you can check off the states as you see them.

The box is sturdy and not too much larger than the book itself, but large enough to allow a pen and pencil in it, as well as a folded map printout (see above).

The plates are large, colorful, detailed and current. Great stuff!

Review: This is a great source for learning and should be used in classrooms to teach students of the many important facts of the states in this country.

Review: We just came back from vacation and my kids loved matching up the license plates from the book with the cars we saw on the road. They made a little game out of it, and the facts on the back were like a mini trivial pursuit game!! I highly recommend this book.
