National Parks With Kids: Be a Traveler-- Not a Tourist

Rating:
Summary: EXACTLY what I was hoping for....
Review: I bought this book for the family vacation that we are planning for the summer. We found it very helpful for the kids! This book has a great variety of things to do for the whole family. I'd recommend it to any family! I've found that any book by Paris Permenter and John Bigley is very helpful for planning vacations. (We used their Caribbean With Kids book for last summer's vacation!)

Summary: A wonderful book!!!
Review: This book was exactly what i was looking for as a planned a summer vacation with my kids to a couple of National Parks. It helped emensly and my kids were surpised at how much cool stuff we found to do on the trip because of this book, they were expecting a borking trip where all they did was ride around in the back of the van, but got much more. Thanks alot for writting this book, hopefully soon ill have a use for your Carribean with kids book!!

Review: Titles can be misleading. In this instance, I was looking for a book that had kid-tested items to see, hike, and do on a park-by-park basis. What is included in this book are an introductory section on what is available for kids in most national parks on a nation wide basis, and individual chapters on each park with lots of non-kid generic information with, at best, a paragraph vaguely related to kid stuff.
