THE A5 BOOK REVIEW

Lonely Planet's "Not-For-Parents" series is aimed at opening up the world of travel to a new group of young adventurers, kids ages 8 and up. There are several city books (New York, Paris, London and Rome) and several covering entire countries and continents, but our favorite for kids is How to be a World Explorer. The book is perfect for curious kids and questioning minds. Learn how to navigate by the stars, how to build an igloo, or how to deal with a bear. The "Not-For-Parents" series makes a great gift that children will read again and again with interest.
