"K-Gr 2Readers discover two new worlds through the eyes of young Tomas, one in which he lives every day (Ecuador) and one that he visits in a dream (Galápagos). Rades's illustrations are bright and inviting, especially the spread of exotic animals. The book includes end pages with some facts about Ecuador and some common Spanish phrases. VERDICT: A solid choice for introducing elements of culture from Ecuador or the Galápagos Islands, primarily in one-on-one reading or integrated into a classroom lesson." Megan Egbert, Meridian Library District, School Library Journal, "...Although it is done with admirable subtlety, Tomas and the Galapagos Adventure is finally an excellent tribute to naturalism, one that will give readers a very fine introduction to places on the earth that remain rich with abundant natural resources and that call out for preservation and protection. A great, intelligent, and artful book - truly an adventure worth taking!" -- The Children's Book Review, ".... Tomas and the Galapagos Adventure is filled with hope, excitement, anticipation, and beautiful visions of creatures in the sea and on the Galapagos Islands. The narrative is also enriched with Spanish words and expressions. Children age 5 and up will love reading this latest title in the Little Adventures Series." -- Midwest Book Review, "This is a fun story that awakens the imagination and salts the lips with whispers of what if?" -- Story Monsters Ink

Synopsis
"Filled with hope, excitement, anticipation, and beautiful visions of creatures in the sea and on the Galapagos Islands." -- Midwest Book Review Tomas rides his beloved horse, Bonito, through his home of Ecuador and sees the landscape from the banana plantations to the beautiful wooded hills. Then travel with Tomas as he goes on a dream journey to explore the ocean and beach of one of the Galapagos Islands! From riding a green sea turtle and seeing a humpback whale pod and hammerhead sharks, to a lunch of fresh fruits and fish with pirates on the beach and escaping from a volcano eruption, Tomas goes on a grand adventure, and he's still home in time for dinner with his mama. "A great, intelligent, and artful book--truly an adventure worth taking! " -- Children's Book Review

    I received my order on time as seller promised. I had questions prior to it being shipped. The seller quickly responded putting my mind at ease. I had previously purchased this same item from 2 other sellers in which I made several attempts to contact, but they would not respond, yet they had already received pymt. I ended up canceling those. Sellers like this one restored my faith on purchasing from EBAY. Item was in perfect condition n packaged very well. Thank you!
