Book Description
This little book is confined to very simple “reading lessons upon the Form and Motions of the Earth, the Points of the Compass, the Meaning of a Map: Definitions.” The shape and motions of the earth are fundamental ideas—however difficult to grasp. Geography should be learned chiefly from maps, and the child should begin the study by learning “the meaning of map,” and how to use it. These subjects are well fitted to form an attractive introduction to the study of Geography: some of them should awaken the delightful interest which attaches in a child’s mind to that which is wonderful—incomprehensible. The Map lessons should lead to mechanical efforts, equally delightful. It is only when presented to the child for the first time in the form of stale knowledge and foregone conclusions that the facts taught in these lessons appear dry and repulsive to him. An effort is made in the following pages to treat the subject with the sort of sympathetic interest and freshness which attracts children to a new study. A short summary of the chief points in each reading lesson is given in the form of questions and answers. Easy verses, illustrative of the various subjects, are introduced, in order that the children may connect pleasant poetic fancies with the phenomena upon which “Geography” so much depends. It is hoped that these reading lessons may afford intelligent teaching, even in the hands of a young teacher. The first ideas of Geography—the lessons on “Place”—which should make the child observant of local geography, of the features of his own neighbourhood, its heights and hollows and level lands, its streams and ponds—should be conveyed viva voce. At this stage, a class-book cannot take the place of an intelligent teacher. Children should go through the book twice, and should, after the second reading, be able to answer any of the questions from memory. Charlotte M. Mason

Book Description
This is an accurate account of the fictional adventures of the Petru Family of six on their first and only cross country US land trip in their brand new custom Chevy Van. The four Petru children, from ten years old to four years old, a dog named Breezy, and a cat named Tabby as well as neighbors known as the Bees, survive a multi-thousand-mile excursion over both easy and rough US terrain. I Liam, the youngest Petru wrote this book so that you could experience what it was like to be in our home, the parks, and in the ball fields, with the Petru family. Most especially, you can now be in the van with us on our most adventurous cross country journey. There are a lot of funny things that happen to us in this story. The trip was not supposed to be funny. It was supposed to be fun and educational. It is both and it is a great read. You will love it. While our parents thought, it was their trip, we the children felt that it was our cross-country trip. Then about half-way through the trip on the way back our parents traded places with the Griswold's Just as my prior story about the Magical Red Hat, this story is told through the eyes of me-the most innocent of all the children-a four-year-old. As a young author, I had taken many mental notes of the trip. The notes were so powerful that I could write about this trip flawlessly twenty years later. The Griswold's could not have told the story any better if I don't say so myself. You won't be able to put this book down. Besides, the subplots at every town along the journey, there is a lot of teaching / learning going on about the magic of geography. Even in a 100+ page book, it takes a long while to cross the United States from Pennsylvania to Salt Lake City Utah and back. I wrote the story so you too could take the trip with us. You'll feel like you are on the trip. And, when the Griswold's are really getting to you, you can just set the book down for a while til they go away. Have fun! This is my follow-up story to My Red Hat Keeps Me On The Ground, which I wrote and which my dad got published for me. From a reader's perspective, it is written by the same Petru kid. I am Liam. It brings back all the characters that everybody learned to love from the magical Red Hat Story-including me, the Petru family, Mr. Bee, & Barbie Bee.
