This beautiful book presents one

hundred favorite drawings submitted by children from around the world.

This is an imaginative collection by young artists ranging in age from five

to fifteen that reflects artistic, cultural, social, and cartographic

awareness. 

In these drawings, young people express their hopes, wishes,

and fears for their world. 

The images show young people’s enduring interest in maps and the excitement to be had from them.
