LaRue Across America: Postcards from the Vacation by Mark Teague
Mark Teague's latest LaRue book takes readers on a road trip across the United States. Ike is really hoping for a relaxing cruise but that does not happen when instead he must go on vacation with Mrs. Hibbin's cats after she falls ill. The cats are not allowed aboard the ship, so instead they hit the road, and of course, there is trouble from the start. I love the humor in the LaRue books. They can be enjoyed by younger kids but I think the older elementary kids can truly appreciate the humor on a different level.
Story: 5 Buckeye leaves - funny as always AND could spur some great geography lessons
Illustrations: 5 Buckeye leaves
