Needs a better editor
I bought this book for my daughter to bring to Guatemala to give to her host family.I thought it would be good because it was written in English and Spanish.The book is very colorful with nice pictures, but unfortunately who ever edited this book forgot a few facts.The biggest of which is a two page spread on the state fish. It says the state fish is a northern pike and it has a drawing for children to learn to draw the state fish.Too bad the fish they are actually drawing looks like a steel head trout and nothing like a northern pike. There is even a color pic of these so called northerns, but they don't look anything like the dark green and white spotted fish I know a northern should look like.

The other bigerror is the map in which major cities of the state are listed.It puts Stanley and Medora, boths towns of a few hundred people as major cities, while eliminating both Minot and Dickinson, which number in the thousands (yes, these are the big towns in North Dakota)

I emailed the publisher about these issues, they never got back to me.It seems to me, that a book like this, should have the basic facts correct. ... Read more
