New Personalized Road Trip Book Offers Solution to Children's Failing Education in GeographyMINNEAPOLIS, May 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- I See Me! hopes to spark children's curiosity and imaginations with its new book that offers a fun and factual geographic exploration of the United States: My U.S.A. Road Trip.
Addressing a deficiency in U.S. geography education, the customizable storybook My U.S.A. Road Trip takes children on an immersive learning adventure that will inspire exploration and discovery. Despite increasing globalization, U.S. children continue to fail at geography. Schools spend less time on geography education because of their heavy emphasis on testing and Common Core standards for reading, math, nd science. On the 2014 National Assessment of Educational Progress, nearly three-quarters of eighth-graders tested below proficient in geography — almost the same result as the 1994 assessment. In this story, the child receives a personalized driver's license, hops into a magical car, and learns state names and key monuments during the journey across America. Families can personalize this road trip adventure with their child's name, gender, and current state. Select the child's skin tone and hair color, and (optionally) upload a photo of the child's face to be incorporated throughout the illustrations. The book includes a personalized map of the United States and a list of all 50 states with their capitals so children can check off the names of the states where they have visited in real life. Parents can also purchase an additional scratch-off map of the United States so their children can reveal each state that they visit. I See Me!'s latest personalized book My U.S.A. Road Trip encourages children to experience the joy of learning and exploring. "Traveling instills in children a curiosity to learn about new places and different perspectives," says Company President Maia Haag. "This personalized storybook with the child's name and photo engages children to want to explore the country and learn the names of the 50 states."
