Review Title: Summer Reading Author: Pamela Publisher: Family Travel Website Date: July 2010 "With around 30 pages per book, "Cool Stuff Every Kid Should Know" is bursting with historical facts, quirky stories, and fun knowledge about the city and state you're vacationing to. With explanations of diaper wearing horses, unique city nicknames (Porkopolis? I'm curious about that one!) and an introduction to the Tallest Cowboy in Texas, it's really no wonder that your kids will take a cover-to-cover approach when reading this delightful series. Of course, as a parent, I must also point out the educational value of such an engaging series - especially during the summer, when it can be most difficult to interest your kids in reading. The colorful layout and pictures are a perfect balance to the interesting content, allowing your kids to really connect with and enjoy the stories and information. The subject matter will keep them involved and excited about your family vacation destination, as well as giving them fun facts, trivia and information to share with the rest of the family during your vacation together!" http://tiny.cc/familytravleguides_blog Title: Cool Stuff Every Kid Should Know About Atlanta, Charleston, Tampa, Orlando, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Dallas, and Houston Author: CanCan Publisher: MomMostTraveled.com Date: 12/10/2010 If you are planning a family trip or just want to teach distant relatives about your city, Arcadia Publishing has launched a fun new series called Cool Stuff Every Kid Should Know.
