Kristy Alpert is an award-winning travel journalist whose quest for adventure has included trekking through the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda and taking part in the ""polar plunge"" in Antarctica. Kristy has spent months at a time on the road—in cars, on trains, and in planes—and believes that the journey to a destination can often be more memorable than the destination itself.
How fun is this?! Getting There is sure to get any kid excited about a trip ahead--and make the journey there so much more enjoyable (for the parent, too!). What a great tool for engaging little brains and keeping small hands busy, encouraging important conversations about travel along the way. -- ""Hannah Chubb, travel writer and editor""
