In this engaging nonfiction picture book, five young friends--Nick, Yulee, Pedro, Sally and Martin--spend the day traveling around their neighborhood and participating in activities designed to raise money for their local library. Along the way, they learn about the people and places that make up their community and what it means to be a part of one. Author and illustrator Scot Ritchie has created a rich resource for social studies lessons on places, roles and jobs within a community, and what it takes to be a responsible citizen.

Kids will enjoy following Sandra and her friends as they search for their pets Max and Olaf. The friends take an imaginative trip through the neighborhood, city and country, around the world and beyond. Kids can join in the search for Max and Olaf, who are hiding somewhere in every map. With an appealing search-and-find technique, ¡Usa aquel mapa! is an interactive picture book that explains and demonstrates key mapping concepts. An activity at the end of the book shows children how to make a map of their bedroom.
