By Jeanette Winter. Beautiful pictures and simple text tell the story of Wangari’s life. There are many replacements for this book in the optional section below.

By Clyde Robert Bulla and Stacey Schuett. 

This is an excellent reference book; it is recommended across all of the Open Books Learning country unit studies. It helps tie together parts of each unit, and provides a great overview of each country. I appreciate that it illustrates developing nations as both modern and traditional; many children's atlases tend to focus on the latter.

For younger learners, you may need to help scaffold this book (e.g. paraphrase and focus only on part of the information). The benefit is that this resource will continue to grow with your child.
