Scholastic 'Omits Israel on map'

“Thea Stilton and the Blue Scarab Hunt,” part of the popular Geronimo Stilton children’s series translated  from Italian and published by Scholastic, tells the story of a group of investigative journalists involved in a treasure hunt in Egypt. A map in the book completely omits the state of Israel. Scholastic says it is withdrawing the book from sale until a corrected edition is printed.
