    4 STARSThis is my second book I have read in the Travels with Gannon and Wyatt. I enjoyed both of them. Gannon and Wyatt are homeschooled. They get to travel a lot and explore places that I can only dream about. They are real twins who have traveled to the places but their adventures are made up along the way. They tale about real settings, and animals and real problems they have surviving in the wild.Their family decide to fly to Botswana to go on a African Safari. They can fly for free because their mom works for a airline.While they are in Botswana they learn that poachers have shot a lioness and she is wounded with four lion cubs. If she does not get medical attention all of them will not survive.Gannon and Wyatt ask to go along with the bushman guide to track her and give her a chance to survive. It should not be too dangerous if they follow their guide's rules. Of course things go wrong and keep going from bad to worse a long the way.African safari is a dangerous place with lots of things that can go wrong. The worst predator is man.They cross a river in their jeep and it gets stuck in the middle of the river with a large crocodile on the banks sleeping. They have to get out and swim to shore and be quite so they don't wake him up.From that point on their is plenty of adventure, action, wild animals up close really up close. heroes and bad guy as they continue to try and find the wounded lioness on foot. I like Gannon and Wyatt but I would not let my children do the things they get into. I hope they have more stories to tell in the future.I was given this ebook to read and asked to give honest review of it by Netgalley.05/28/2013 PUB Greenleaf Book Group Press ISBN:9781608325856

    I spent 16 years as a homeschool mom and I wish this book had been available when my children were still in school! I would have used it to introduce many topics and areas of study. It would make learning geography, science and history fun!Twin brothers, having a mom who works for a an airline and a father who is a international artist, have a lot of opportunity to travel the world. This adventure takes them to Botswana and into the battle to protect wildlife from poachers. It's written in a first person style by the two brothers as they keep their diaries of the trip. This technique would be handy as a homeschooler for encouraging reluctant writers to journal their own adventures. The book is filled with jumping off points for further studies and research.There is an accompanying website with lots of extras to enhance the experience of the book. It is definitely for the 9-12 year old group and would seem simplistic to kids older than that but for it's intended age group, I think it would cause a life-long interest in the beauties and problems of Africa. I'll be keeping this one for my granddaughters to read in a few years.This was provided through Goodreads Giveaways and I appreciate the authors and publisher giving me the opportunity to read and review it.

    More an exciting and fun vacation diary than a travel guide, this book offers alternating journal entries by venturesome twin brothers, Gannon and Wyatt. Because the two boys have different interests and points of view, the book chronicles the activities and events that they experience from different angles.I thought it was very effective way of introducing people (targeted to young folks in middle school, although informative and enjoyable for adults as well) to the history, geography, weather, art, culture, politics, food, flora, fauna – and more – of Ireland.There are a series of "Travels with Gannon & Wyatt" books focusing on other countries … and based on my pleasure in reading this one, I plan to read more of them.
