Summary: Rediscovering America's heartland....
Review: Allen Johnson has done it again. He continues to entertain as well as educate the young and the old with his "Adventures with Grandchildren" series. This time, we are peddling across the heartland of the USA, covering 4 states and 600 unsupported miles, with Allen and 2 of his pre-teen grandchildren. Along the journey we encounter exotic-named cities and the simplistic, interesting folk who live there. History is reborn as we discover a natural rock bridge, visit a log cabin, and sleep in a monastery. Allen weaves a magical, yet authentic tale of present-age family adventures that all can enjoy reading as well as dream about accomplishing. He shows us that each of us can select a fantasy journey and, more importantly, make it happen!!
