Read a boundary word
What does the word ‘northernmost’ add to the bald cypress note? Write the sentence in your own words while keeping that meaning, then compare it with the original.
- Open the landscape spread and read its note together.
- Use words or a sketch to record one detail. Point to the page or source that supports it.
- Write one question you still have. On a later outing with a grown-up, record what you actually notice, even if it differs from the book.

From a sample to their own book
Their face in the expedition. Their own Delaware chapter.
Add your child’s photo, name and dedication. Choose the child alone or with Mom, Dad, Grandma or Grandpa from a second photo. Their likeness appears on the cover and selected expedition surfaces; the reference pages keep their fixed layouts.
Preview the cover, title page and first habitat free. After payment, review every page and change the dedication before approving print. The Atlas uses its own review flow.
The personalization proof shown is our Hazel sample. The state previews above show the Delaware chapter. National-chapter expert review does not extend to the varying home-state chapters.

Before you choose their Delaware chapter.
Is the whole book about Delaware?
The 82-page Atlas explores seven American habitats and 39 animals, then reaches its final chapter: six pages about one chosen home state. Choose Delaware for that chapter. Index, sources and colophon pages follow it. One book does not include a separate chapter for every state.
What can I read on this page?
Selected spreads from Hazel’s Delaware sample chapter, with the source-linked notes already published in our Atlas explorer. Use “Read this spread” to inspect the small type. The whole finished book is available to review after payment.
Can this be a gift for a child living in another state?
Yes. You choose the chapter; the delivery address is separate. The Atlas currently ships to the contiguous United States and Washington, DC. You can choose an Alaska or Hawaii chapter for delivery within that area.
Does the notebook come with the Atlas?
The 56-page Field Notebook is a separate optional softcover for sightings and sketches, personalized with the child’s name and home state. The Flora + Fauna edition adds 26 plants inside the Atlas. Choose either upgrade, both or neither in the options above.
