Join a young boy as he hops around the globe, visiting friends in 13 different countries spanning all 6 populated continents.

This books gives a oversight of many popular countries. It has great information and great illustrations to show what the country really looks like. It included information like what animals live there, where it is on the map, and an example of normal life there.
