《国家地理》（National Geographic，原名《国家地理杂志》）是美国国家地理学会的官方杂志，在国家地理学会1888年成立后的9个月开始发行第一期。现在国家地理已经成为世界上zui广为人知的一本杂志，其封面上的亮黄色边框及月桂纹图样已经成为其象征，同时这些标识也是国家地理的注册商标。

National Geographic 总是能提供我们令人震撼的影像，从大自然、动物，到人文，纪录了这个地球上不同地区、不同物种、不同文化的生存之美。国家地理杂志近千分之一的选片率虽然显得苛刻，但一大批充满理想和浪漫主义的优秀摄影师、记者在这里诞生，而那些有灵魂有激情的作品则往往代表了一种标准。在大多数读者眼中，国家地理杂志意味着权威、科学性、准官方，它更像是一本百科全书而不仅仅是一本杂志。

《美国国家地理儿童百科》是外语教学与研究出版社引进“国家地理”的儿童英语系列读物，分为入门级、提高级和流利级三套，适用于4-16岁孩子，读物涉及了物理科学、地球;太空科学、生命科学、工艺和技术、地理、历史、文化以及经济等多个方面。培养孩子的听、说、读、写等全面语言技能的同时，也注重孩子的自然、社会百科知识与生活常识的积累以及对孩子交际、生存能力的培养。
