Jamies Journey: The Mountain

Jamie stands on the summit, surveying the scene, looking down, far below, to a forest of green. Since his marvelous mat can so easily glide, he scrambles aboard for a thrill of a ride. Now his mat is a slip-sliding, snow-going sled! Down he zips, to the flat, sunny valley ahead. In the first book in this series, young Jamie journeyed on his marvelous mat to the African savanna in Kenya and Tanzania, befriending an elephant calf. In this beautifully illustrated sequel he employs his marvelous morphing mat to climb Mount Everest and befriend a herd of Himalayan yak. The message? Read to awaken your dreams. Imagine, and make it happen. Susan M.
