Maps and locations

Face the Sun, follow the route, find the spot

Birds fly thousands of kilometres and still find their way home. People find their way with directions and maps. In this chapter you will face the rising Sun to find North, East, South and West, guide an ant along the lines of a grid, and find animals in a zoo by two numbers, like (4, 1).

Think about it

Four little chicks flew East, West, North and South. If you face the rising Sun, which way is North?
