Tämä on ikiikivanha kouluni ihana karttakirja, jota yhä aina vain selailen. Rakastan karttoja, ja tämä kirja on paljon luettu ja mielikuvamatkustettu ihana vanha pehmeäkantinen Otavan kartasto.

This challenge was set by dotdot, Rakuna, Neuilly & Annelis.

Since the fall 2005,I am going to read a book from every country in the world. The challenge will include books that are about these countries, authors who are from these countries, or just books in which part of the happenings are located in these countries. There's no time limit for this challenge, so come with us and enjoy!

Syksystä 2005 lähtien aion lukea kirjan jokaiseen maailman maahan liittyen. Kirjan tapahtumat tai paikat voivat liittyä maihin, tai kirjailijat itse voivat olla sieltä lähtöisin. Tälle haasteelle ei ole aikarajaa, tule siis mukaan ja iloitse!

191 UN Member States - 191 YK:n jäsenvaltiota

*(there's some countries or territories that doesn't belong to (or are not specially mentioned in) UN Member States, but I wanted to take them with, so they're market with *)
*(maat tai alueet, jotka eivät kuulu YK:n jäsenvaltioihin, mutta jotka halusin ottaa mukaan, ovat merkitty *:llä)

I'm also supporting the Olympic Challenge and try to read the mooks from more countries than the members of UN. However, as some of the books I've read are only located in different countries, and not necessarily written by authors from these countries, I mark them with ~.
