This book attempts to describe the geography, cultural milieu, and history of modern Israel. The description of the geography and the problems modern Israelis encountered and solved in living in such a harsh environment is detailed and accurate.
Grade 7-10-Chapter titles indicate the usual coverage of geography, history, people and culture, economy, and government typical of country studies, but the emphasis here is on physical and economic geography much more than on sparking an interest in the people and their lifestyles. For example, in the chapter "How Ukrainians Make a Living," GDP, GNI, Purchasing Power Parity, the "shadow economy," and corruption are discussed, along with information on the basic sectors of the economy.
Let's Visit Israel is a cute book about Israel. It begins with a drawing of a plane landing in Israel and follows a little boys journey on a bus through the hills in Jerusalem, walk along the roads in the Old City, visit to a kibbutz, boat ride in Eilat, cable car ride at Masada, and swim in the Dead Sea. Each page of the book describes a different site. This book would make a cute baby present and it will definitely make the reader want to visit Israel.
