A story that gives 7 - 10 year old's a virtual tour to Peru with Alberto the alpaca as their guide. Meet some of his wonderful friends in this fun filled story with facts and information about the animals in Peru,, such as the vicuna and monkey frogs.

In this activity book, readers will discover fascinating information about the ancient cities and the world famous Machu Picchu.  There is plenty to keep young children engaged as they increase their knowledge and dazzle their friends.

There is also a fun quiz so they can test their knowledge. Plus, we liked the phonetic spelling for place names that helps understand the correct pronunciations.

While there are a lot of interesting facts to read, the jaunty, colourful illustrations will also keep readers busy as they search for the animals, insects, plants and find out about the cities, towns and the natural wonders high in the clouds.

The glossary and a list with drawings of the animals which readers will find handy when reading the book.

This would make an ideal gift for children who are inquisitive and love nature.
