What an incredible place Canada is! The second-largest country in the world, it is home to such heroes as Terry Fox, Celine Dion, J. Armand Bombardier and Roberta Bondar. Canada is also the birthplace of many ingenious inventions and discoveries, including insulin, zippers, Ski-Doos and green garbage bags.
The Kids Book of Canada introduces kids to our nation with maps, timelines, fact boxes and information about each province and territory — including regional landscapes, wildlife, profiles of famous Canadians, important events, provincial and territorial coats of arms and much more. An important resource for school projects that will enrich everyone’s knowledge and appreciation of Canada!
