Paddle to the Sea and Tree in the Trail were cute and fun. These two books were also enjoyable to read. The other two books, Minn of the Mississippi and Seabird were not as enjoyable. The books were hard to read and we struggled to finish them. I won't be using this curriculum again in the future.

I have done 1 of the books so far with my son. The books are definitely geared more towards boys. I won't do the study with my girls as they wouldn't enjoy it nearly as much. If you do one book a year it gives them time to really absorb the information and take it all in. I started this with my son in 3rd grade and it was perfect age for him to begin the study.

We have enjoyed these four books of geography so much. The guide just gently holds our hand as we walk through each story. We love Paddle. He is a part of our family now. thank you.
