Or what the meaning is behind the black stars on many African flags? Well maybe it’s time to find out! This is a gorgeous, accessible atlas of flags around the world. It is packed with fascinating flag facts clearly arranged by Robin Jacobs and joyously presented by illustrator Ben Javens.

Review :
"This comprehensive volume provides almost every detail one could desire about national flags. Neatly organized in sections that cover the history of flags, explanations of symbols and colors, and flags of different nations by continents, this title leaves out little information. Young researchers and those with an interest in flags of different countries should find this book useful; selectors should strongly consider purchasing for both school and public libraries." - School Library Journal "All About Flags shares information about not only flags of different countries, but also about flags for different purposes, such as naval flags, flags used to identify groups of people, and more. Readers learn that there are unusual flags out there, including square flags of two countries, a flag with more than four sides, etc. Flags in the book are grouped by continent and then by theme, so there is a clear order for how to understand the flags as they are represented throughout the book. The glossary at the end as well as the index of countries rounds out the book, making it very easy to find whatever information necessary to learn about different countries and their flags."
