Dr. Hayes-Bohanan uses Goodreads to share book recommendations; he recently posted a review of a book that students of geography of any age can enjoy. It describes the clever, simple, and remarkably accurate results of the first effort to measure planet earth over 2,000 years ago.
The Librarian Who Measured the Earth by
Kathryn Lasky
My rating:
5 of 5 stars
This is written for children, but readers of any age can enjoy and learn from this book. As a geographer married to a librarian, this is a family favorite.
