Book Synopsis

Dive into the history, geography, and culture of Illinois in this installment of the 50 States series. From major cities to historic events, Where Is Illinois? introduces you to the state in a whole new way, whether you're proud to call it home or learning about a distant destination.

Visit famous places like the coast of Lake Michigan. Meet important people like presidents Barack Obama and Abraham Lincoln. Read about the Cahokia Mounds and the people who built them. Fans of sports, nature, and weird facts will all find something to love about the home of a T-rex skeleton named Sue and the John Deere tractor company. Plus, learn why the Chicago River flows backwards!

Including timelines, black-and-white illustrations, and a fact-filled "At a Glance" section, this book has everything you need to know about the heritage, development, and present day of Illinois.
