"The short descriptions of places are accurate, both in the story and in the appended information about the Silk Road and the making of silk. This book is an excellent way to introduce the trade... This description may be from another edition of this product.
A truly educational, truly enjoyable children's book! My children (ages 3 and 1) love it, and I would recommend it for elementary age children as well. There's extra info about the Silk Road in the back (including how to pronounce all the place names), but there's also a bunch of valuable information tucked into the rhyme — which is truly rhythmic and rhyming through the entire book. What's not to love?
