			United States Geography Reader divides the 
			continental United States into eight geographic areas and gives 
			details on twelve unique tourist destinations within each region. 
			Destinations were chosen to appeal to middle and high school 
			students and will engage all teen readers. Teen user-friendly travel 
			destinations include: Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and 
			Museum, San Antonio’s Riverwalk and Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry. 
			Includes 96 lessons in total.  
			 
			Each lesson consists of a one-page story written in a modified 
			travel brochure style at a Grade 3-5 reading level, and two pages of 
			comprehension quizzes about the story. Students locate their 
			destination on a map and connect its location to their own state and 
			town of origin. And they’re encouraged to write their own 
			experiences and opinions about suggested sites. Each lesson is 
			illustrated and includes actual photographs of the locations. 
			Internet addresses are added for further learning opportunities. By
