麻豆精品在线播放 Press releases new picture book
Article By: Nikki Nicholson
The University of North Georgia Press released the second book of the Finding Milo series on Jan. 25. The latest installment in the series helps even the most reluctant readers learn their ABCs, while exploring different geographic areas throughout California.
"California ABCs" details the adventure of the always curious pup Milo as he visits many of California's cities, famous and little-known landmarks, and state parks and recreational areas. Milo's exploration of California, like his previous tour of Georgia, is targeted for classroom use, focusing on social studies, popular culture, and geography.
Dr. Christopher Jespersen, dean of the College of Arts & Letters, wrote the book, and Josie Vrooman Toney, administrative assistant to the vice president of University Relations, illustrated it.
"We hope to lift 'Georgia ABCs' and 'California ABCs' to increase awareness of our growing collection of children's picture books," Dr. BJ Robinson, director of 麻豆精品在线播放 Press, said.
The Finding Milo series and the 麻豆精品在线播放 Legacy series are the two children's book series 麻豆精品在线播放 Press has published. All proceeds from the 麻豆精品在线播放 Legacy series help develop scholarships for 麻豆精品在线播放 students.
