Safety of driftboard
This device seems well made and is easy to ride. It has been charged succesfully and tha charger cut off as it should. However there have been recent reports of fires and failures with other cheaper models during charging. Can you assure me as to the safety of my driftboard?

Oxford School Atlas
Oxford School Atlas: seems very clearly laid out and was needed because my very old one was out of date and names -particularly in Africa and China and the Soviet Union - have changed but I have hardly used it yet

Ideal school atlas
This was a gift for my eight year old great nephew to help him with his school work. It is an ideal school atlas and very good value for money.

lots of fluff content but fine for basic geography
This is a high-school level atlas. For students of that age it will likely suffice but not for geography fiends. It's softcover. The page size, overall thickness and weight is a little more than a full-size magazine. Within its limited number of pages, a lot of space is dedicated to demographics, economics, and natural disasters rather than serious, detailed maps. Geographic detail (number of cities & towns, landform features, etc.) is a bit on the low side but enough for school & high school needs. There is a great amount of extra coverage and detail on UK and Ireland. If you live there you will like that. Yet it omits any real coverage of Central America other than the zoomed-out, low-detail North America map. A glaring omission - not what I'd expect from Oxford. The visual presentation is colorful and nicely done, all information is presented clearly. A nice atlas if you like bonus content rather than hard cartography.

Oxford School Atlas
Good book, easy to read, full of interesting maps and infos. I think it's good to buy it for primary and secondary school kids as they do not learn much geography at school nowadays, so parents can teach some at home as well.
