Frances H. Henshaw's Book of Penmanship Executed at the Middlebury Female Academy April 29, 1828.

This amazing map was drawn in 1828 by a very gifted child in Middlebury Vermont. The map includes text in a circular pattern and begins, "The first settlement made within the limits of the United States was in North Carolina." Positioned along side are the names of bordering states and the Atlantic Ocean.
