The World And Its People
by Ginn Silver BurdettReading maps is an important skill that will help you learn about the world and its cultures. Maps are our most important tools for finding out where a place is located. However, as you look through this Handbook, you'll find out that maps can help you understand other things, too. You will see many maps in this book, and many of them will show the same outline of our world. But each one gives different information and is useful in a different way.

A World Away
by Nancy GrossmanA summer of firsts. Sixteen-year-old Eliza Miller has never made a phone call, never tried on a pair of jeans, never sat in a darkened theater waiting for a movie to start. She's never even talked to someone her age who isn't Amish, like her. A summer of good-byes. When she leaves her close-knit family to spend the summer as a nanny in suburban Chicago, a part of her can't wait to leave behind everything she knows. She can't imagine the secrets she will uncover, the friends she will make, the surprises and temptations of a way of life so different from her own. A summer of impossible choice. Every minute Eliza spends with her new friend Josh feels as good as listening to music for the first time, and she wonders whether there might be a place for her in his world. But as summer wanes, she misses the people she has left behind, and the Plain life she once took for granted. Eliza will have to decide for herself where she belongs. Whichever choice she makes, she knows she will lose someone she loves.
