An interesting book. This book takes some of the unusual city names and then creates them into characters for this book. The characters are based on the origin of the city names and the heritage associated with the country or tribe. It is fun. The illustrations are unique. I cannot explain them without destroying your impressions, so I will pass on that. It is worth adding to any collection. It is a good starting point about how places get their name, and the illustrations are just fun to look at. An all around enjoyable book.
