Stringbean's Trip is a Journey for All,
By Meg Diekman (West Lafayette, Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stringbean's Trip To The Shining Sea (Blue Ribbon Book) (Paperback)
Stringbean's Trip to the Shining Sea by Vera B. Williams andJennifer Williams is a realistic and imaginative children's story.The format is a scrapbook that chronicles the road trip Stringbean and his brother take to the Pacific Ocean from their home in Kansas. The amusing text is written in the form of postcards the brothers send to family members as they make their way to their destination. The illustrations are unique, and are "photographs" and colorful postcards displaying Stringbean's experiences in a fun and personnal way. The reader feels s/he is actually looking at someone's scrapbook and as the story progresses feels like a family member to whom the postcards have been sent. As well as being entertaining, the book is a useful geography tool for children, allowing them to travel the journey on a map as the brother's make their way across country.
