- Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2025Format: HardcoverVerified PurchaseI bought this for young niece and nephews to go with some toy cars and trains as gift. My teenager started flipping through it, then sat down and read it all.
It’s full of fun, interesting facts and my teenager loves to share a few of her favorites when certain states are mentioned. Not just for kids! A great gift.
