There is more to England than Big Ben and the city of London.

This book is one in the 20 book series Exploring Countries written for the intermediate grades. There are 13 brief chapters. In ” Where Is England?”, the map is big enough for the reader to see that England is a part of the United Kingdom and sits on the island of Great Britain. Some of the other chapters are: Wildlife, Daily Life, Going to School, Working, Playing, Food, and Fast Fact .  In Fast Facts, the English flag is shown with its white background and red cross, which is a part of the Union Jack.

Readers will come across interesting quick bits of trivia in the “Fun Facts” and “Did You Know?” insets throughout the book.
