A lovey and informative trip all over Rhode Island with electric prose by Adam Gamble and captivating illustrations by Mark Jasper. A delight and a true page-turner. I couldn’t put it down.

My Review; I received this book for Munchkin recently and read it to him. While he can't focus yet, I think he will enjoy it when he can! The artwork is lovely and I love how it was specific to our state. The only thing I found odd was that it started in the morning, it was more like a one day tour of the state.
