So You Want to Be an Explorer?

Written by Judith St. George, illustrated by David Small

Well, why wouldn’t you want to be an explorer? After all, for thousands of years, explorers have been at the cutting edge of discovering the unknown world.

You may know explorers Marco Polo and Christopher Columbus, but what about Mary Kingsley, who studied cannibals in Africa (and lived to tell the tale), or Cowboy Jim White, who discovered and explored the fantastic Carlsbad Caverns?

“…St. George’s gung-ho language combined with Small’s sprightly depictions will help ratchet up student enthusiasm.”
