THE GREAT NATIONS
Meadow’s World
Understanding the countries that built the modern world.
★ AN OMAHAINDIA ORIGINAL ★
Travel the world with Meadow, a curious 10-year-old who asks one question everywhere she goes: “Why did this country become what it is today?” Each book uncovers the hidden connections between science, geography, history, economics and human ingenuity — as a story, never a lecture.
