Maps and Books: World Book Day
World Book Day is actually March 1, tomorrow, in the U.S. In the UK travel site Storybook England offers an online map of places featured in childrens literature with suggested local attractions. The print version is sold out!
Another option for young (and old) to combine books and geography: check out Very Spatial’s interview with with James Owen, author of Here There Be Dragons. I’m not a a scifi/fantasy sort, but if I were this sounds interesting. The allusions to historical and literary characters should keep adults and literature fans sufficiently enthralled, too.
