It's easy to get lost in the wide worlds of Minecraft. Did you know that you can make, find, and trade for maps to help you find your way and study your environment? Humans have made maps for nearly as long as civilizations have existed. This book shows those historical connections with Minecraft principles and asks students to think about how maps help them learn about their environment, both in the real world and the Minecraft world.
