Books with title Let's Go to Mackinac Island!

Let’s Go To Mackinac Island is the first in a series of children’s picture travel books for children ages 5-10, but delighting adults as well. A different family travels to each destination on a fun journey, exploring the sights while learning some history along the way. Each book is bursting with vibrant watercolor illustrations as scenes are depicted through the eyes of a child. Come along with the Anderson family – Josh, 10, Angela, 7, and mischievous Brandon, 5, as they visit a one-of-a-kind island in Lake Huron, located between Michigan’s upper and lower peninsulas. The island has no land access, no bridge or highway, in fact, apart from a small airport, the only way to get there is by ferry boat. Residents and visitors walk, ride bicycles or horses, or use horse-drawn carriages to get around. Whether you’ve yet to visit this idyllic wonderland, or have already experienced its beguiling charm, this book will let you enjoy, again and again, the exciting enchantment that only Mackinac Island can deliver.

Mackinac Island is a place like no other. Travel by ferry boat to a place with no cars, but plenty of history and -- fudge! Learn all about the island surrounded by the sparkling waters of Lake Huron at the tip of Michigan's mitten. This fully illustrated book includes travel tips, a scavenger hunt, and a quiz. Even if you never visit the island, you'll feel like you have traveled back to the 1880s and learn lots of interesting things about life on the island through the years, including battles, a belly-hole, and the role of missionaries in the area.

Come along with Pix the Panda on his exciting trip to Mackinac Island! In the second of Pix’s worldwide adventures, he rides on a ferry boat, samples some famous fudge, learns why there are no cars on the island, and more! When you’re done exploring Mackinac Island through the photos in this book, you can continue the learning with hands-on activities included in a special reproducible section at the end of the book.
