I love to travel. My classroom is filled with postcards from all over the world and books to encourage and promote diversity. Students in my class come from all different countries and I think it's important for us to embrace that as well as the cultures of the Middle East.
Though some students have traveled outside the country, many of my students have not even left the state. I think it's important for them at a young age to become aware of all the places that they can visit in their lifetime. One way to promote a sense of adventure, curiosity and love of learning is to introduce such texts that encourage students to learn more about the places that they live and would like to visit in the near future. I think that it's important to have students read informational texts. As adults, we are bombarded with nonfiction. We constantly read reviews, read the news, watch the weather, read bills and all other non fiction modes of texts that we are required to synthesize, interpret and relate to our real life situations. This book can be the first step in exposing students to real life /nonfictional texts.
I like this book about Exploring the Middle East. I love to travel and I think this is a good introduction for children to learn about the world. Lately, I have ordered a significant amount of Baby Professor Books in exchange for providing honest reviews of their products. I am an elementary teacher and also an aunt. I am constantly looking for books that will grasp the attention of my students and beloved relatives.
I like to use in my kindle in whole group and small group discussions. Occasionally, I let my students work together and read their books electronically. I like them to learn at their own pace and gravitate towards books that grasp their attention as learners.
I think the Baby Professor books are encouraging students to explore their interests throughout their learning journey. I have reviewed baby professor books of different subjects such as history and science and geography.. What each book does is provide information, allowing students and teachers to create environments of learning. It also provides colored photos . We discuss the topics and then write down questions that we have which we would still like to explore.
Baby Professor books leave students with information and photos which can spark their interests. I look forward to reading more of their books in my class and am glad I was able to add these to my classroom library.

Great intoduction to 7 areas of the Middle East
Study of the middle east is a vital part of our homeschool journey due to the nature of its proximity to the territory of the Bible. We study a lot of Middle East land while studying through our Bible curriculum but it was good to take a look at other areas that are not mentioned in the Bible. This book of "Must see" in the Middle East, there is a mix of cities and landmarks. The cities are beautiful cities tucked away that are not center of many news concerning the Middle East. One of the cities mentioned was Ephesus which my kids recognized from the Bible but it was nice to study it more from a historical setting.All of the books in this series have been awesome introductions of territory that my kids may not have a chance to visit soon but thanks to Baby Professor, they can learn tidbits of information and see beautiful pictures depicting areas within these regions. In this particular book every information page has a picture of the landmark or city and it is followed by a full page picture of the same area. These pictures can not be fully descirbed. They are rich and vibrant pictures showing details that spark interest in children. Much of the words could get lost in a child's brain but a good picture can last a lifetime in their memory and the pictures Baby Professor chooses are pictures that will stick!This information can be geared for many different age groups. My kids range from nb-11 and with the exception of the newborn, the other 4 children all got something out of this book and desired to know more.I received this e-book for free in exchange for my honest review. This incentive did not affect my review of this e-book.
