Excellent story showing that it is not the picture or souvenier from a vacation that is most important, but the emotions and experiences that happened. It also teaches the idea that a picture with a person in it is almost always more interesting than one without. I think it would be great for an elementary writing lesson about personal narratives. It would also be great right before going on a nature field trip or something else outdoors when the students would be allowed to snap digital pictures along the way.

Okay, the book was neat with the little pictures from their vacation throughout the book. I just don't think that it was great. Anyone????

I didn't like this one at all. I didn't understand the purpose of it and I feel like the "meaning" that is demonstrated at the end is slightly forced and doesn't necessarily come across as genuine. While I did appreciate the artwork the story-line was not interesting in the least bit.
