About this title

Synopsis

A car trip across Canada doesn’t sound like much fun to 11-year-old Guy, especially with his little sister in tow — but even he’s won over as the adventure begins. As his family treks from coast to coast, and even up into the territories, Guy finds that Canada is surprisingly... interesting. His wry observations offer an honest, engaging look at Canada’s culture, history, natural wonders, and most famous sights. The 3-D scrapbook-style design, featuring wacky postcards, Guy’s cartoons, and incredible photographs, complements the fast pace and truly original style of this remarkably entertaining guide.
