Published by Dolphin Dream Publishing
ISBN 9780648866749
This is the second fun educational activity book in the series of Alberto's Adventures. It is filled with information and many facts about the gruelling Kokoda Trail.
Young readers, aged 7 - 10 years will learn about the history of the Kokoda Trail told through easy to follow illustrations with short bites of information. Read about the geography of this part of Papua New Guinea and gain an appreciation for the trials and tribulations that our forefathers had to endure during World War II.
In creating this glossy, soft covered picture book it has been thoughtfully planned. The timeline of The Kokoda Trail with brief detailed explanations with pronunciations of significant sections on the trail makes this ideally written for this age group. The detailed illustrations are sure to keep readers engaged as they read and learn about different sections, such as what happens when Alberto comes across the walking trees, or arrives at a village, sees spectacular scenery, the airfield and meets local wildlife.
There are pages to help find out where Kelly Koala, Alberto's half sister is hidden within the pages, plus the glossary is helpful for learning new words and expanding their vocabulary. There is also a list with drawings of the animals which readers will find handy when reading the book.
Together or separately, The Kokoda Trail and
Alberto's Adventure Inca Trail and Machu Picchu and Inca Trail would make an ideal gift for kids.
